School Holiday Programmes
Adventure Skills Development, Senior Journey, Journey Max, Junior Journey and Go Wild School Holiday Programmes are full of action-packed outdoor adventure! Students will discover remote places of wilderness in the Nelson/Tasman region by tramping, mountain biking, sea or river kayaking and camping - activities vary by season.
Our school holiday programmes are about having fun, exploring, and learning outdoor skills as well as for students to become aware of their true strengths and potential.
The adventures will require students to work in a team and to face challenges together building essential leadership qualities. The outcome is a great sense of achievement, increased confidence and a memorable experience that will be shared with new friends.
