Life in Europe

A history trip to Auschwitz, Nuremberg and Berlin; a geography trip to Mount Vesuvius and Rome; a physics trip to the world’s most powerful particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva; a music trip to the opera in Prague; a dormitory trip to museums in Vienna; a cultural trip to London; a civics trip to UN headquarters; a music trip to Mozart’s birthplace in Salzburg; a Model UN trip to Athens or Budapest; or just a monthly excursion to the symphony — these are just a few of the enriching trips that add depth to the curriculum and the experience at Townshend. Rich in history and culture, an education in Europe brings you into direct contact with the foundations of western thought and civilisation. It’s an experience like no other.
