Primary School Programmes
Whenua Iti Outdoors offers a wide range of programmes that build in elements of adventurous, cultural and environmental learning into each experience. We enjoy working with schools to enhance the learning of their tamariki, incorporating the needs of the group and any classroom goals.
Our vision is to inspire positive change through our experiential learning programmes, using challenging, fun & engaging activities in the outdoors as our platform.
