School year full of activities: the best options for schools

Outdoor sports activities are undoubtedly the best received by pupils in schools, whether they are school trips, winter weeks in the snow, excursions or extracurricular activities. 

Changing classrooms for rivers, mountains or beaches for a few days or hours can be the best lesson of all. Outdoor sports activities are aimed at all kinds of audiences, but they are particularly popular among young people. If you are looking for an experience that combines sport, culture and nature with values such as teamwork and the culture of effort, don’t hesitate any longer and come with your students to RocRoi’s centres. This is the best opportunity to get away from the routine of the course and the stress of exams and work to learn in the open air in a privileged environment. 

Schools are looking for activities for week-long trips, holiday camps or end-of-year trips or winter weeks in the snow for which they prepare a complete itinerary full of sporting activities in nature. In addition, there are also schools that organise excursions or extracurricular activities of this kind. 

In short, a visit to a school can involve programmes of activities lasting several hours over several days for a hundred or so pupils. Therefore, from our activity centres we adapt to what you demand from the schools in order to put together the itinerary accordingly. 

“We want to use games and activities to transmit knowledge. What the schools ask for is, above all, to organise cooperative activities, so that competition is not the aim”, says Adrià Márquez, head of commercial development and sales at RocRoi.
