“Students experience individual challenges and growth, and leave with impressions that continue to ripple through their daily lives long after they’ve left the site.” – Cindy Carter, Head of Physical Education, CHSS
With specific programs for both primary and secondary school, expect experiential education at its best! Under the guise of playing, students will learn to develop self-confidence, to become effective listeners and leaders, and to trust and bond with their peers.
An educational session includes setting goals, pushing personal boundaries, learning respect for themselves and for others and is followed up with a comprehensive debriefing. EOW is a classroom without walls.
