What will students see and do?

Live4Adventure provides its expertise and equipment, along with boundless enthusiasm, to give your pupils one of the most exciting UK school trips available!

The team will work with you to design and deliver an activity programme that meets and exceeds your expectations, no matter the age or experience of the children.

Live4Adventure prides itself on helping young people achieve. It focuses on developing the enjoyment of meeting challenges and discovering personal strengths. Teachers, instructors and pupils work together to meet personal goals and discover new talents and favourite activities.

Children will discover that they can have more fun climbing a mountain, jumping into a stream or paddling a boat than they would have believed possible. The relationship between children, their classmates and their teacher is strengthened in a powerful outdoor learning experience.

Health, fitness and physical activity are all highly beneficial concepts that children will take away from their adventures with Live4Adventure. All this takes place in fun, safe outdoor environments, following all safety precautions.

How does the trip link to the curriculum?

Outdoor school trip benefits are numerous. In this case, pupils will be exposed to many learning experiences covering personal development goals and nearly every section of the national curriculum.

Instructors will provide engaging information about the area being explored that includes science, geography and history topics, along with helping the children develop self-confidence and a sense of wonder. Children will have the opportunity to acquire skills and experiences that will stay with them for life.

The best type of teaching resource is provided – expert knowledge from your course instructor. The children will learn about ropes and pulleys as they harness up for climbing. They will learn about living things in the environment as they explore on their school trip. They will work towards personal development goals while they work as a team to achieve physical goals.
