Term-time Expeditions

Separate to the longer trips abroad in Term 3, throughout the school year students participate in expeditions, taking them on adventures in the great outdoors. Each trip is planned with the students’ input, to suit the age group and with due regard to risk management. In summer for example, they will spend a weekend outdoors - visiting spectacular glaciers or dams, orienteering in the mountains or tracking dinosaur footprints on nearby rocks. In winter, students might ski to a mountain cabin and stay overnight, or try walking with snowshoes. Expeditions take them out of their normal environment to encounter new experiences and face challenges.
