Bushcraft Residential Trips
Bring your children back to nature with a Bushcraft trip for schools
A Rootd bushcraft experience connects Year 4 - 8 pupils with the outdoors and nature. With flexible choices of 2 or 3 night bushcraft residential trips or a bushcraft day trip we offer options to suit the needs and budget of any school.
Our bushcraft residential trips are tailored to meet the needs of your students and their year group. Every activity develops the skills you’re looking for back in the classroom: resilience, confidence, and problem solving. For many, the highlight is singing around the campfire, building a shelter, and experiencing the fun of a back-to-nature experience.
On a Rootd Bushcraft trip your pupils will be fully immersed in their outdoor adventure and leave feeling inspired.
What to expect:
The fun starts the minute you arrive. We offer a fantastic range of activities where your students can learn new skills, challenge themselves and have the ultimate bushcraft experience.

- Survival skills

All-year round Bushcraft Residential Trips
At Rootd, we run our bushcraft adventures all year round so you can easily fit them into the busy school calendar. Bushcraft trips can be used as a way of developing key skills, learning new topics or just getting the children out into nature. Our flexible accommodation options mean that whatever the season you can join us on a bushcraft residential trip. Our bell tents are a popular choice in the warmer months, and our indoor lodges provide cosy accommodation, both with sheltered outdoor areas and an indoor eating space.
