What we offer on a school trip
Rock Up has everything you’ll need for a thrilling adventure all under one roof! We have 25 climbing walls, a two storey soft play and a vertical dropslide for those looking for a challenge. Additionally, we have a café that serves refreshments and hot/cold food. School food packages can be added on for £6pp and a seating area can be made available.
What makes us a great choice for educational visits
Rock Up is a great way to engage students in a unique and physically active experience. Climbing promotes physical fitness, builds resilience and develops self-confidence in young individuals.
What is typically included on our school trips
A typical climbing session consists of a 30 minute safety briefing followed by a 55 minute climb. There are also options to extend your session (if you’re hungry for more.) Soft Play caters for all little ones up to 7 years, and we have seating downstairs for spectators. There are also amazing Rock Up badges that can be added on to any group booking to reward the adventurers after the session has finished.
Group Sizes
Up to 40 climbers.
