STEM school trips to Belgium

Available as a half-day, day trip, or several day residential excursion, the Euro Space Center is a remarkable attraction, helping students expand their knowledge of the universe and the mysteries that surround it. Students will take part in different activities depending on the duration of your visit, with hands-on astronaut training, simulators and science workshops all brilliant options for your group.

Often referred to as the symbol of Brussels and Belgium, the Atomium is the city’s top attraction – and not just because of the futuristic structure’s viewing platform, which offers panoramic views of the city. Inside, students can also explore the Atomium’s structure, which is often compared to the inside of a spaceship and houses several exhibitions.

An excursion we know your students will love, a visit to this chocolate factory is always popular on our trips to Brussels. At Concept Chocolate, your school group will learn all about the art of chocolate making, and have the opportunity to even try some delicious Belgian chocolate!

Visit the largest dinosaur gallery in the whole of Europe at Brussels Museums of Natural Sciences. Here, school groups can learn about how the human body has evolved, study over 1,000 different specimens and get close to gigantic dinosaur skeletons – an experience we’ve found is always popular among students.

Discover the beauty of the dark night sky in one of the largest planetariums in Europe at the Planetarium of the Royal Observatory. Beneath a semi-spherical dome, school groups can embark on a magical journey where the Sun, the Moon, the planets, the Milky Way and more than 8500 stars can be projected.

Let your students fall in love with science at Technopolis. Whatever their age or ability, there’s a scheme set out to boost their imagination here, from the exhibits in the interactive Science Garden to learning about hydropower and the forces of the sea, and even the opportunity to carry out their own experiments! An excellent option for a science-centred school trip.

Surrounded by the opulent Baroque guildhalls, the Flamboyant Town Hall and the neo-Gothic King’s House building, Brussels’ Grand Place is a sight to behold – and we can’t wait to show it to you. The most important landmark in the city, this UNESCO World Heritage Site dates back to the 11th century, and offers the perfect base for your school trip, as well as giving your students a great opportunity to learn about Belgian history.

Located on the outskirts of Brussels, Mini Europe is a miniature park made up of Europe’s best known landmarks including the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, the Leaning Tower of Pisa and Brussels’ Grand Place. Mini Europe is a great place to spend a few hours, allowing your students to take lots of fun photos, marvel at the tiny structures and learn more about the significance of the European Union.
