Kasane Trip

We are excited to offer students an incredible residential adventure to Kasane in partnership with Camp Botswana Children’s Activity Camp. Located near Chobe National Park, this experience gives students the chance to explore one of Botswana’s most famous wildlife areas while building confidence, independence and teamwork skills.

Students will take part in exciting activities such as safari game drives in Chobe National Park, river boat cruises, team-building challenges and campfire evenings, creating unforgettable memories while learning outside the classroom.

The cost includes transport, accommodation, meals, snacks and all activities. Students should bring a packed lunch for the journey, or money to buy lunch on the way. The trip is fully insured, and payment can be made in full or in monthly instalments due on the 30th to help spread the cost.
