School residential trips

Watch them flourish. Whichever centre you choose, our experienced team will identify the activity programme that ticks all your boxes – with the attention and care that really matters. You might want to link to the national curriculum at Key Stages 3 and 4 , strive to accomplish new things, or simply enjoy the great outdoors . As you can see below, we offer a terrific range – just mix and match to find the perfect fit.

We also offer packages to help you evidence Social, Moral, Spiritual and Cultural (SMSC) outcomes from visits to us. For study breaks with a difference, we can design tailored study and revision retreats for you to support your coursework aims or exam preparations.

Flexible residential experiences

Get settled in style. Whatever you decide: traditional camping in patrol tents, self-contained accommodation or Scandinavian-style log cabins, you can enjoy stunning ancient woodland or captivating coastlines. Then you are all set for your incredible adventure – whether shooting arrows with precision, conquering obstacles with grit or zipping through the treetops with flair.

And the fun doesn’t end when the day finishes. We keep young people entertained with a packed range of evening activities – from movie nights to camp fire circles, from silent discos to It’s a Knockout!

With fully catered package prices starting from just £91.50 per person* and free places for leaders**, you’ll find our trips offer incredible value for money.

“Highlights of our visit – the accommodation and the teaching space, it was great being able to spread out.”
