About this school trip

We would be delighted to take care of transport for you and your pupils to STAM, the Ghent City Museum on the Bijloke site. The permanent exhibition 'The Story of Ghent' works like a time machine: pupils travel through the city's history from before 1200 to the present day.

A highlight is the giant aerial photograph that pupils walk across while watching the city grow and change shape. Unique objects, digital animations and wall-sized maps make urban history concrete and easy to relate to. You can choose a self-guided visit or a tour in which the guide tailors the story to your group. There is a programme for nursery, primary and secondary schools, with teaching ideas for each age group and digital exhibitions to view in the classroom.

Children and young people under 18 and the accompanying staff of school groups get in free. Picnics are possible in the gardens, provided you book in advance. ITS-Reizen takes your class to Ghent in a comfortable, safe coach, so you can enjoy a fascinating day without a care.
