Field Trips, Indoor & Outdoor Education
Lessons taught in the classroom are complemented by learning in the field, and the knowledge gained about oneself while exploring the outdoors. With our location students have a unique opportunity to witness geology, biology, and snow science firsthand. Equally, if not more important, field trips, orientation trips, and winter hut trips provide a structured and safe environment for students to take risks, face and overcome challenges, and build confidence—leadership skills that will serve them their whole life. they see the world — the real world — and learn to operate confidently and comfortably in it. Experiences like this also build strong bonds among teachers and students, which serve as the foundation for our rapport-based learning community.
