A super trip! (October 2023 - Primary School)




The AweSome Week programme is a great experience for all children. It allows all children to experience adventurous activities in their local environment and the activities are very inclusive of all children. The one night camp allows all children to take part especially those who have never stayed away from home an being in the locality allows for children to go home if required.

An excellent trip which encouraged the children to be active and confident. (May 2022 - Primary School)




Fantastic experience with highly professional, knowledgeable and engaging staff who put the pupils at ease immediately and encouraged them to challenge themselves. Great links to the STEM curriculum and pupils could see their learning in real life contexts. The staff supported and encouraged the development of interpersonal skills brilliantly and the links with Health and Wellbeing outcomes were evident throughout. My only wish would be that ALL pupils are offered these opportunities on a more regular basis so it is not seen as a one off novelty, but an integrated and valuable way to deliver the curriculum and see the 4 capacities in action. If all pupils had these experiences on a regular basis, this would allow for depth and progression of the skills learnt. (February 2022 - Primary School)
