We’re thrilled to announce that we’ve been named winners of the Best Residential Experience at the 2024 School Travel Organiser Awards—and we have teachers, like you, to thank!
As a provider of transformative school trips, we understand the lasting impact our experiences have on both students and teachers. Intertwined with the excitement and adventure are powerful learning opportunities, personal breakthroughs, and unforgettable ‘WOW’ moments that set us apart.
Why this win means so much to us
Outdoor learning inspires and transforms! From our exciting programmes to our dedicated colleagues, we focus on delivering experiences that are not only educational but also empowering. This win is special because it’s been voted for by the teachers who witness the benefits of these trips first-hand. This support drives us to continue to improve and innovate everything we do.
Winning Best Residential Experience shows we are on the right track. Whether it’s through our brand new THRIVE! wellbeing programme, our supportive PIONEER! programme for young adventurers, or our curriculum-linked Field Studies trips, we make every trip meaningful.
What sets us apart?
Tailored, curriculum-linked adventures: Our trips go beyond fun activities — they’re designed to complement the curriculum and deliver outcome-based learning, enhancing students’ progress through hands-on, real-world experiences. Whether they’re learning about biology on a field trip or practicing teamwork during outdoor challenges, our residentials are packed with educational value.
Experienced and passionate colleagues: Our people are more than just instructors — they’re passionate about creating fun, nurturing environments that encourage young people to grow and try new things.
Unforgettable memories: Fun and adventure is at the heart of everything we do. From campfires to climbing walls, zip wires to group challenges, we make every moment count.
The impact of THRIVE!
The judges highlighted our new THRIVE! programme, part of our REACH framework, which is already generating excitement among schools. Designed with student wellbeing in mind, THRIVE! offers a unique blend of activities to help young people recharge, connect with nature, and build emotional resilience.
From yoga-style sessions to forest bathing, THRIVE! offers a fresh approach to wellbeing and personal growth. We’re thrilled that the judges agree and recognise the importance of this new programme. We can’t wait to welcome the first students to experience this programme in the coming months.
Thank you again for your support. This win is as much yours as it is ours. Here’s to more adventure, learning, and growth in the years to come!
