Creating the perfect programme for your school is our specialty. Many schools have different needs as they are travelling in term-time including theme-appropriate stays that fit into the curriculum as well as specific outdoor adventure thrills in various seasons.
Depending on the needs of the group we can adapt programmes to meet the school curriculum, social, or activity needs. Programmes are adapted to suit primary, middle years and high school year groups.
Common theme requests from schools are for:
Team building
Resiliency
Collaboration
Adaptation to climate change
As children’s lives become ever more connected to a global, virtual, and electronic world we must strive to help them stay connected to the real world around them. Working, learning, travelling, and playing in group settings, while experiencing interpersonal contact and immersion in the natural world has never been more important for children. All Village Camps Outdoor Education programmes include opportunities for learning in the natural world.
Personal growth
Social education
Adventure skills development
As soon as you have decided on the type of programme, the length of stay and have an approximate number of participants, we will supply you with a firm, all-inclusive price. Simply call or email us with your request and we will get back to you with a proposed schedule and a price. We are here to help you put together a valuable and memorable experience for your students!
