Inspiring a lifetime of adventure
Our trips for schools are what makes Wildchild unique above other providers. We don’t just offer days of back-to-back activities taking children from one harness to another!
Wildchild school trips provide a real opportunity for children through to young adults to experience the natural world outside. We deliver immersive outdoor education experiences in exciting woodland environments, with a key focus on engaging young people, helping them to identify and appreciate the many benefits and wonders of the natural world.
“Amazing opportunity for our children to interact with each other and nature – as well as develop survival and team-building skills”. Woodside Primary Academy
Our varied residential trip for school programmes ensure achievement on a Wildchild Adventure is about much more than simply who climbed highest and who reached furthest. We recognise and celebrate teamwork, resilience, the willingness to try new things and perseverance in overcoming personal challenges.
“Enlightening! Wonderful to see the children thrive and experience challenges in a safe manner! It scares them just enough to push them out of their comfort zones but remains fun!” Whytemead Primary School
