The sun came out for day 2 of the Bronze Award practice journey ☀️ After a short loop to test their navigation skills, we made our way back through Collserola and down to Barcelona 🗺️🧭 There were some excellent examples of collaboration, leadership and critical thinking. Well done to both teams!! 🙌 We are looking forward to the qualifying journey in March.

It was wet and wild ☔️ but the Bronze Award students did a great job on day 1 of their Duke of Edinburgh Practice Journey. They successfully navigated around Collserola and then cooked up some delicious food for dinner. Excellent teamwork and positivity all round! 🙌

Did you know over 230 species of birds can be observed in the Parque Fluvial del Besòs? 🦜🦆🦤 We had a great time with the learners from studying the flora and fauna that can be found near the river. As well as birds we also spotted reptiles 🐢 and fish 🐠 Who knew there was so much nature close to ?

It's our mission inspire young people and help them prepare for a successful future through meaningful outdoor experiences.

To achieve this our experiences focus on three core values:

🏔️ Learn
🏔️ Feel
🏔️ Connect

*Learning the skills needed for an uncertain future*

Traditional educational systems aren’t equipping students with the skills they need for a future where AI and automation will take over many of the jobs we currently know. They’ll need to adapt and find ways to succeed in positions which don’t yet exist.

As well as being 100% in English, our outdoor programmes focus on teaching the following 21st Century skills:

- Leadership and communication
- Collaboration and teamwork
- Critical thinking and problem solving
- Creativity and perseverance

*Feeling alive and being present*

In a world where mobile phone addiction and anxiety in young people are soaring and the threat of the ‘metaverse’ is just around the corner - it’s essential young people are given an opportunity to forget their phones for a moment and experience the joy of being outside.

We all know the physical benefits of getting out and exercising, but it can be excellent for your mental wellbeing too. Our outdoor experiences can:

- Improve your mood
- Reduce feelings of stress or anger
- Allow you to take time out and feel more relaxed
- Boost your confidence and self-esteem
- Help you build a healthy lifestyle

*Connecting with nature and learning to appreciate the world we live in*

We all know the planet is in danger and if we don’t act quickly we’ll have a climate disaster on our hands (if we don't already!). But how can we get people to take notice?

By providing meaningful outdoor experiences which allow students to connect with nature (as well as the other students), they’ll start to appreciate the environment and see what we are at risk of losing.

Our programmes focus on the importance of leaving no trace, and show students how to interpret and respect the environment so they can then go away and teach others to see the beauty of our surroundings.

What’s your favourite place in the ? 🏔 Ours has to be the fabulous Parque Nacional de Ordesa y Monte Perdido.

Declared a World Heritage site by Unesco in 1997, the National Park is home to four magnificent valleys (Ordesa, Añisclo, Escuaín and Pineta), a wide variety of flora and fauna and the third highest mountain in the Pyrenees (Monte Perdido at 3355m).

These photos were taken along one of the most popular routes - la ruta de la Cola de Caballo por la senda de los cazadores. A must for any keen hiker. 🥾

If you’d like help planning a trip to Ordesa (or elsewhere in Catalunya), don’t hesitate to get in touch.

Despite the (very) challenging conditions 🌧 we had a successful weekend helping The British School of Barcelona with their Bronze award practice journeys.
