LEADERSHIP & CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT
Tailor-made programmes to meet your school’s unique needs and objectives
One of the unique experiences schools in Aotearoa offer are camps and outdoor programmes that focus on the specific needs of a whole year group in order to maximise their holistic development. These opportunities aspire to shape the character of the students so that they may succeed both in the school environment and beyond. There are many models that exist from half-year “live in” programmes to action-packed day programmes. We will work with your school to create a programme that fosters development, putting theory into practice. We will help your students identify the links between concepts learnt through adventurous experiences and your school’s character and values.
Student leaders, whether formally appointed “prefects” or natural born influencers, play a significant role in shaping the learning environment of our schools. We can partner with you to invest into these students to ensure they can help form positive school communities.
Our leadership programmes help emerging leaders identify their unique strengths and how they can use their individual talents to affect positive change in their peer groups and the wider community.
This programme provides numerous opportunities for students to demonstrate practical leadership skills, reflect on their leadership practice and apply these skills in their daily life.
Youth Development
Our youth development programmes are based on Adventure Therapy principles and are designed to work with the most vulnerable in the school system.
We partner with student support services, youth workers and pastoral care departments to deliver programmes that help these students develop social and emotional skills, discover their strengths, increase resilience and equip themselves to reach their life goals.
One of our signature programmes is The Journey.
