School trips have become an integral part of our school education.
Nowdays there are several types of school trips, which include one day ore one to seven days trips. The purpose of a week trip is to get to other cities or countries, to find out more about places of historical interest local landmarks and attractions, get some cultural insight into the things.
It is known that such trips are very rewarding on the one hand, as they are educational and relaxing. Such excursions broaden children's horizons. 
The historical past hepls us to find out sa much as possible about our past, in order to value it and make it help us make fewer mistakes in the future. It makes us love our country, and proud of its people, its historical past. It fosters people's patriotic feelings and outlines our ancestors glorious and brave exploits.
Such long trips also unite our schoolmates as a team.
However, there are some people who believe that this is a bad and useless thing, because children tend to miss scholl lessons, and do not study properly.
Of course, one cannot deny that children do miss their lessons but it is better than sitting in the stuffy classroom and reading boring books.
Unfortunately it is seldom that our class goes on school trips, but I wish we would go more often.
I would like to find out something about my motherland and other countries. I do hope it will help me in my future profession.
