Led by Mr Metcalfe and the Humanities department, the trip promises a packed itinerary exploring Iceland’s awe-inspiring landscapes, geothermal wonders, and rich cultural heritage. The visit is closely linked to the Geography curriculum and offers pupils a unique opportunity to experience learning beyond the classroom from waterfalls and volcanoes to glaciers and geysers. We’ll be sharing updates throughout the trip, courtesy of Mrs Cauchi, so be sure to follow our social media channels to keep up with their adventures. We wish the group a safe journey and a truly unforgettable experience! #### Facebook PriorySTC \| Instagram penworthampriory ### Iceland Trip 2025 - And They're Off [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8814.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8814.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8815.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8815.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8816.JPEG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8816.JPEG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8820.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8820.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8822.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/penwortham-priory-academy/images/gallery/iceland-trip-2025-and-they-re-off/IMG_8822.JPG) [Geography](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/geography) [Extra Curricular](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/extra-curricular) [Trips](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/trips) [Humanities](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/humanities) [Personal Development](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/personal-development) [Culture](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/culture) [ Year 11 Historians Explore the Gruesome Past at Thackray Medical Museum](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2025-10-22-year-11-historians-explore-the-gruesome-past-at-thackray-medical-museum) [Iceland Adventure ](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/news/2025-10-24-iceland-adventure) ### Penwortham Priory Academy Crow Hills Road Penwortham Preston Lancashire PR1 0JE 01772 320250 ### Useful Links - [New Year 7 Transition](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/transition) - [The School Day](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/the-school-day) - [Facility Hire](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/facility-hire-at-priory) - [Term Dates](https://www.priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/termdates) - [Letters](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/letters) ### Useful Links - [Newsletters](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/newsletters) - [OFSTED](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/about-priory/ofsted-report) - [Online Payments](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/parents/internet-payments) - [Staff Contact](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/staff-contact-list) - [Vacancies](https://priory.lancs.sch.uk/staff/vacancies) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/priorystc) - [X](https://twitter.com/@priorystc) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/penworthampriory/) Penwortham Priory Academy Trust is operating as a single academy trust.
