Why Go Residential?

31 January 2017

Residential activites in young and older children brings on skill sets and communication skills that can bring great benefits to help them get along in life moving forward.  Children that struggle with social skills will have a chance to communicate and practice working together with their peers away from the pressures of the classroom. 

Residential activity centres are there for fun but they also support many key areas for our childrens personal development. They also geared towards Team Building in groups that may push them out of their comfort zone and away from their usual social peer groups.

Motivation, Social skills, behaviour, mental development, confidence and responsibility are to name but a few.
