Residential trips for schools
Residential trips that inspire a lifelong love of outdoor adventure
A Rootd school residential trip is all about finding the fun and adventure in every moment. We don’t just offer days of back-to-back activities, we create a fully immersive experience for children, where they can get back to basics and find the adventure in nature.
We deliver outdoor education experiences in exciting woodland environments, where children are encouraged to challenge themselves, learn new skills and make the most of the natural environment.
Our school residential trips are designed to inspire every child to get involved and work closely with their classmates to achieve their goals. Whether this is building a shelter together or guiding each other on the high ropes, students learn resilience and the importance of teamwork through fun and exciting activities.
Tailored trips for primary and secondary school
From the moment you book your trip, we make sure we get to know you and your students. We then design the ideal trip for you, incorporating activities that we know will bring out the best in your students.
When you’re with us, we’ll take the time to get to know each and every student, building relationships with them and responding to their needs and interests on a personal level.
Activities that celebrate teamwork and resilience
Developing students’ life skills and building their resilience as they explore the outdoors is the aim of our trips, so we plan them carefully around the principles of forest schools teaching.
Through outdoor adventure, we encourage independent thinking, creativity and teamwork – skills that will benefit them all once they’re back in the classroom.
Accessible and flexible accommodation in a woodland setting
Our woodland outdoor adventure centres are within an hour of Central London and easily accessible from London and the South East.
We offer flexible accommodation options to suit the time of year and the type of experience you’re looking for. Whether you opt for an under-canvas camping experience at our bell tent village in rural Hertfordshire or a unique glamping experience in leafy Surrey, you’re guaranteed a comfortable night’s sleep in a stunning location.
Great value trips for schools
We want to make our trips as accessible to as many children as possible, and with shorter-stays, choice of accommodation and all year round residential trips, we offer real value for money.
The cost of our school trips includes meals, accommodation, activities, an evening activity programme, Rootd instructors with you at all times, and free teacher/leader places.
