About this school trip
We would be delighted to take care of transport for you and your pupils to Bokrijk Open-Air Museum near Genk. In and around historic houses, pupils discover how the past can help shape our future, with a museum farm, craft workshops and plenty of space to play and walk.
The schools programme is varied. In a role-play activity, Bokrijk actors take the class back to life around 1900, for example behind an old school desk or on the farm. In the workshops, pupils bake bread or work with clay, leather or textiles, and take their own creation home. There are also guided experience trails and self-guided routes such as 'Mission 1900'. The programme caters for nursery classes, primary schools and the first years of secondary school.
Bokrijk asks schools to book at least a month in advance. Coaches park free of charge at Car Park 1. ITS-Reizen takes your class to Bokrijk and back in comfort and safety, so you can enjoy a day full of historic villages and crafts.
