YHA has been enriching the lives of young people since 1930, so you can trust its team to provide you with expert guidance on how to plan a residential that is perfectly tailored to your needs.

3 | Unique experiences
Your students will relish the opportunity to escape the classroom for a few days and experience hands-on adventures. YHA residentials provide the ideal environment for groups to get into the fresh air, explore the great outdoors and engage in a wide range of activities, many of which they may not ordinarily be able to try – from climbing and caving, to canoeing and kayaking.

Because they are based upon high-quality residentials YHA school trips can play a key role in igniting your students’ passion, enthusiasm and desire for learning. They lead to positive outcomes such as increased resilience, improved self-confidence, better social relationships, and educational achievement, among many others. Staff witness first-hand the benefits that these residentials have on students who stay with YHA – why not discover what your group will gain from the experience?
