What happens on a Bushcraft school trip? 

Settling into the wilderness woodland environment, your students will have an immersive experience in the great outdoors.  After you arrive on camp on day one, you’ll jump straight into the first fun activity of the day. Each day you’ll move between activities that test different skills as well as exploring the stunning woods that are your home for the duration of the trip.

Punctuated by meals and snack breaks, you’ll stay well energised for all the activities that are on offer. Evenings will be filled with fun and games as well as hot chocolates and s’mores around the campfire. Students and teacher alike sleep in bell tents that are situated round a central yurt. From arrival to departure, our residential trips are packed with wall-to-wall adventure!

Watch the video to get a glimpse of some of the activities that take place on camp.

Accommodation and care 

On a Bushcraft residential each school gets their very own private camp.

This ensures that the students have exclusive access to the facilities and activities, maximizing their time and allowing for a fuller experience. We treat food as a part of the experience and not just fuel to get us through the fun. Our estates have a central kitchen which provides all hearty and tasty meals and snacks for all on camp! Students will also help cook some meals whilst nestled between the trees in our wilderness cookery activities.

  • Bell tents that sleep approximately 10 students
  • Separate toilet facilities for girls, boys and adults
  • Cater to all dietary requirements and needs
  • Water re-fill stations around camp
  • First aid trained Bushcraft staff on-site 24-hours
  • Staff run all activities and entertainment up until bedtime
