General Information
Packages do not cover transportation, meals, overnight staffing, or mountain bike rentals where applicable. For assessments involving rafting, climbing, abseiling, or ropes courses, all necessary safety equipment and venue access are covered. We provide tents, cookers (excluding fuel), and billies for camping expeditions upon request; however, additional camping site fees are the responsibility of the school.

 

All activities are backed by Safety Audit Certificates through our partners at Captivate Adventures Ltd.

 

A minimum enrollment of 18 students is generally required.

 

Please be aware these modules are for assessment only; students must be taught the relevant skills beforehand. For instance, participants should complete indoor climbing sessions before attending a rock or high ropes assessment, or have sufficient class riding time prior to mountain biking. Because practice opportunities for low ropes and rafting are limited, training is integrated into those assessment days, provided students are familiar with activity codes of practice. Educator resource kits can be provided for prep work.

 

We can efficiently bundle assessments—such as combining climbing and rafting over a two-day period—to maximize outcomes while reducing time away from the classroom.

To explore these options further, please get in touch via phone or email.
