We encourage every school in the UAE to make the most of these free, fascinating learning opportunities at Expo 2020,” she said.
Reservations include entry to Expo 2020, express entry into thematic pavilions, as well as an identification band for students. Expo will also grant complimentary access for accompanying adults, “with different ratios, depending on the age group of the students”.
The six-month mega event is set to begin on October 1.
