Leadership & team building

leadership and teambuilding program

 

Our leadership and team building programs are made up of a variety of team building, communication, problem solving and outdoor challenges that are designed to challenge students intellectually, provide opportunities for creativity and develop student's social and emotional capacity to interact with others and resolve conflict.

Leadership and team building is available as an incursion, excursion or overnight camp.
