Are School Study Tours Worthy?

Dear blog,
Parents pay money to schools for their child to attend study tours. But are school study tours worthy of the money spent? Or is the child just spending a good time and not learning anything from it? Most parents allow their child so their child can have a good time. Maybe those parents think like that. But for other parents, they prefer study tours to be educational, and not just sitting around and having a good time.
The truth is, study tours - even if not educational - are very worthy. There are two types of study tour benefits (in my opinion), education and experience. Sometimes they can even mix together, even the small details count.
Educational benefits? You get those from visiting places and getting more facts about it (especially historical places), being more knowledgeable. We can also add in museums. That would be a boost of educational benefits. But you should always add in experience benefits. You know.
Experience benefits, now? You get those by going to new places, seeing different cultures, visiting orphan houses (rumah anak yatim) and old folks' home. Your mind will be very open to various things. That's what we'll also have to register in children these days.
So, it's proven (by me!) that study tours are worthy, in any way possible. Bear that in mind! ;)

Sincerely,
Harlin.
