Kingswood Isle of Wight School Trip

Residential Trip Residentials London & South East

trip icon has been delivering award-winning outdoor adventure learning trips for 40 years, engaging with the latest pedagogic research to design curriculum-linked programmes that develop confidence, resilience and learning ability.

Our Isle of Wight centre covers 100 acres of beautiful fields and woodlands in a superb cliff top location, overlooking Whitecliff Bay, with direct beach access.

At this activity-packed centre, students can take on adrenaline-filled challenges on the high ropes, climbing tower, zipline, 3G Swing or Leap of Faith, or try their hand at a new skill like archery, shelter building or fencing.

Located in a Site of Special Scientific Interest on the Jurassic coast, this 100-acre cliff top centre boasts direct beach access for surfing, SUP-ing, bodyboarding and swimming, and is the perfect setting for environmental field studies on coasts and rocky shores.

Inspire and immerse your students in this remarkable landscape with highly trained, specialist tutors who will provide your students with the key skills they need for examinations and research projects.

The Isle of Wight holds five residential buildings bordering a tree-lined lane in Whitecliff Bay. Choose from 4-12 bed dormitories in the main buildings, with en-suite single rooms for party leaders, or opt for the true camper experience in our Adventure Lodge safari tents. Complete with campfire areas, the lodges offer a close community feel ideal for team bonding and reflection after a long day of adventure and learning.

Whether you would like to create your own activity programme, or let the experts do it for you, our outdoor adventures are designed to ensure that you achieve your desired learning outcomes, whilst offering each child an opportunity to increase their resilience, grow their confidence and develop their character.

Physical Education School Trip


Zip Line Kayaking Canoeing Climbing Orienteering Archery High Ropes

We offer a range of physical activities across our centres which promote health and wellbeing, resilience and team-building skills. Activities at the Isle of Wight centre include fencing, archery, climbing, abseiling, kayaking, SUP-ing, swimming, body boarding and more.

Bushcraft School Trip


Bushcraft is offered at many of the Kingswood centres, either in a dedicated area or woodland adjacent to site. Sessions may include shelter building, fire lighting and cooking. Sessions may include shelter building, fire lighting and cooking and encourage independent thinking as well as collaborative working.

Citizenship School Trip


Personal development and resilience

Taking part in a residential trip can do wonders for a child's personal and physical development. Activities such as climbing, hiking, kayaking, and team sports all promote physical fitness and instil discipline, perseverance and a positive attitude towards challenges. These types of experiences can help build character, enhance self-esteem and even spark interest in physical activities that could last a lifetime.

One of the primary goals of a residential trip is to encourage independence and self-reliance in children. Being away from the comfort of their own homes and families allows the students to develop essential life skills like decision-making, problem-solving, and having more independent responsibility. Through the range of activities that are planned, children can learn to overcome challenges, build resilience, and become more confident in their abilities.


What size groups do we cater for?

Kingswood cater for small, medium and large groups and even offer full site hire. There is no minimum group size. Groups can stay in 4-12 bed dorms with accessible accommodation available or Adventure Lodges sleeping 11-19.

On-site classroom facilities?

Classrooms are available to use throughout your residential. Please contact us directly to find out more about our computer labs.

Is there first aid on site?

All Kingswood staff go through health and safety training and there are first aiders on site at all times.

Access for visitors with disabilities

Kingswood endeavour to make centres accessible to as many young people as possible. Experience has taught us that the best way to understand the extent, and limitations, of the provision centres offer, is for party leaders to visit the centre itself and discuss the requirements with the management team on site.

Visitors with Special Educational Needs (SEN)

Kingswood's provisions for young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities including learning difficulties, hearing, visual or mobility impairment and behavioural issues can be found on the SEND page of their website along with risk assessments for SEND. However, Kingswood encourage party leaders to contact the management team to arrange SEND provisions.
