Plan your next residential with YHA - Various location in England and Wales Booking a residential with YHA in the colder months provides the chance to get more children away at the very best prices as well as setting up friendships and learning for the year ahead. School trips give children adventures to remember forever. YHA’s network of properties span the length and breadth of England and Wales’s most inspiring landscapes which means they’re able to offer teachers and students the widest range of authentic learning opportunities in the real outdoors. Whether it’s a field trip or a jam-packed week of activities you’re looking for, YHA has something to suit every requirement. Because the majority of experiences take place in the real outdoors, your students won’t be climbing on an indoor climbing wall, they’ll be scaling a rock face in the Peak District, abseiling in the Lake District or canoeing on the River Wye. YHA want to make it as easy as possible for teachers and support staff, which is why they have bursaries and great value residentials in the colder months. Let their dedicated and experienced team build an unforgettable experience for you and your class. |
