5 ways to switch up your residential in 23/24

The Conway Centres, honored with The Best Residential Experience at this year’s School Travel awards, offer five ways to switch up a school residential visit to maximize its benefits. 1. The autumn term doesn’t mean the end of adventure Autumn and winter months = low prices + more benefits! Conway Centres know that a winter residential brings more challenging weather, but what better way to encourage children to thrive in the natural environment? 2. Bring multiple year groups With the price of coaches ever on the rise, why not consider taking multiple year groups? You may choose to take one group Monday – Wednesday and then another Wednesday – Friday to save on coach costs. This not only reduces costs, but children can enjoy socialising and making life-long memories with other year groups. 3. Set curriculum-linked outcomes Conway Centres can work with schools on a tailored programme to bring a classroom learning to life. All of the activities and programmes have been specifically designed to support the curriculum to ensure children get the most out of their visit. 4. Progression and shared experiences With four locations across Cheshire and North Wales, Conway Centres has a centre perfect for every year group. Why not consider progressing through the different centres or programmes? Children will be welcomed back by the same familiar faces. 5. Why not consider a day visit? At Conway Centres schools, children and young people can come and visit for a day full of activities. From kayaking off the private dock on the Menai Strait in the morning to reaching new heights on the high rope course – children and young people will enjoy a day full of adventure, all at a low cost.
