Schools tell us they struggle to afford long residential trips but don’t want their students to miss out on the experience. Most of the big providers only offer 2-night options. We’re proud to be different.  A bushcraft day trip with Wildchild is the flexible, affordable option you’re looking for.

A bushcraft school trip brought to you

Many schools are looking for a bushcraft day brought to their school. It’s a flexible alternative to coming to visit one of our locations. If you have suitable school grounds, we’d be happy to bring Wildchild to you. All the fun with none of the hassle.

Treat your bushcraft day at school just as you would a trip out to us. We arrive early in the morning to set everything up ready for your students to arrive. We bring everything with us, so there’s no need for you to provide anything.

Your students will enjoy the exciting bushcraft activities throughout the day. It creates a real buzz around the school. In warmer months, why not arrange for the students to picnic outside with us to create that real outdoor experience?
