See how students at Kings Bournemouth got on over the weekend during their visit to London!📍 🇬🇧 💂‍♂️

Their day was jam packed from the get go, ensuring students got to see all the tourist hot spots! Some of the locations they visited included the spectacular Buckingham Palace, The London Eye, exploring the river along the Southbank, seeing Big Ben up close, taking photos at Horse Guard Parade, as well as exploring Trafalgar Square!

It was certainly a lot to pack into one day, but we most definitely made the most of our time in the capital! 😊 🇬🇧
