Overnight camp on your school grounds with We Are Adventurers

Organising a residential school trip with us means bringing the spirit of adventure to your own school grounds. Camp starts at 6pm on Friday. Children arrive with their sleeping bags and teddy bears to see that their familiar school playing field has been transformed into a tented village – including a communal shelter in case of bad weather.

Filled with excitement on a night away from home spent under canvas, we embark on age appropriate outdoor games before gathering around the campfire to toast marshmallows, tell stories and sing campfire songs. Then it’s cups of hot chocolate before we brush our teeth camping style and head to bed where we hear plenty of giggles which eventually peter into silence!

In the morning we enjoy a light breakfast and the children learn practical skills as they pack away the tents under the instruction of our team. They are collected by parents at 9am.

Our passionate outdoor leaders make sure everyone feels safe and has fun

We understand that the first night away from home can be incredibly scary for some children, and holding a residential school trip on school grounds can really help children feel comfortable with this new experience. We work in partnership with teachers from the school to deliver the experience – typically working to a ratio of 1:15.

We’ve been running residential school trips since 2018 from year 3 upwards. Our outdoor leaders are experts at looking after children in outdoor settings, we know how to keep them occupied, inspired and safe!
