Our Programmes
Transition
Our Transition programme is especially designed to assist cluster groups make the move from primary to secondary school, a time of major change for all pupils.
The residential programme supports schools by providing an intensive experience over 5 days. Through a combination of high and low ropes, tasks and challenges, and trust and confidence games, children are encouraged to become more independent and raise their awareness of other people. This experience gives them the confidence to take change in their stride and carry their new skills into the classroom.
