FIELD TRIPS:

Plan a Field Trip to LARC’s Acadian Village

LARC’s Acadian Village offers engaging and educational field trip experiences with flexible options to suit your group’s needs. We offer guided tours with an experienced tour guide in either English or French. You also have the option to add hands-on workshops to any guided tour for an additional charge.


How It Works

Most school groups arrive around 10:00 AM to begin their tour. Groups scheduled for guided tours are often divided into smaller sections to provide a more personal and enriching experience for each student.

  • Guided Tour: Approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, depending on group size

After touring, students can enjoy lunch on the grounds. There are benches and picnic tables available, or you’re welcome to picnic beneath our beautiful, shaded oak trees.

Following lunch, students are given free time to play in the open green space—whether it’s school-provided games or a fun round of classic tag. The general store is also open for student shopping (with adult supervision). We kindly ask that no more than 20 students visit the store at a time.

Once all activities are complete, dismissal follows a fun and memorable day of learning and exploration.


A Visit That Gives Back

All proceeds from field trips benefit LARC, our parent organization dedicated to supporting individuals in Acadiana with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families.

Workshops

Enhance your guided field trip experience with a hands-on educational workshop designed to engage students in Acadian culture and history.

Please Note:

  • Workshops require a minimum of 10 participants to book.
  • Workshops are available only as an add-on to a guided tour.
  • An additional fee per child applies.

These interactive sessions offer a fun and meaningful way for students to connect with the past beyond the tour itself.
