School Trips Suggestions
Hi! As a teacher, I found it difficult last year to take my students on an educational trips in Qatar, as I was new and knew almost nothing about the country.
This year, I would like to take them to different places, traditional, cultural, as well as educational and recreational. Any suggestions about special places or events that might be of interest for highshoolers? Thanks
This isn't easy here. Check out getting your kids into the Islamic Art that is opening in November. Also, contact the Universities, they won't have trips but they might have some guest speakers.
