We ensure that from early on, our students are enriched by a breadth of exposure to the real world. Readying them to step out into the multilayered environment of the 21 st century with confidence, relevant life skills and a commitment to bettering society. At YES, we are constantly nudging our students to make discoveries about the world and indeed, themselves. Outbound trips are a wonderful way for our children to do this, and also learn life skills through pure experience. Our partner for adventure-based learning is _________ which designs modules and trips with a theme for each grade. In Class 4 , when children are away from their parents for the first time, the focus is on building confidence and awareness of self and their strengths. The next year, there is a smooth segue into teamwork as a theme – and so on progressively. The trips are a remarkable exercise in character building, offering opportunities for students to try new things and express themselves in a safe, protected environment.
