School Trips, Youth Programmes & Residentials
There are so many benefits to including outdoor activities as part of educational school and youth trips. Getting them out in the fresh air and doing something active is fantastic for their health and wellbeing, they’ll learn new skills that cannot be taught in a classroom, and they’ll achieve things they never thought possible.
Our passion and years of experience organising school trips and youth group projects allows us to offer unique and fulfilling activities that will aid both their educational and personal development.
All of our activities are approved by AALA, Hampshire County Council and Learning Outside the Classroom. We can deliver standalone activities, day trips and multi activity packages that are designed to educate outside the classroom and inspire children to try more, do more and achieve more – regardless of academic or physical ability.
COVID-19 Update
With the latest government announcement and the roadmap to re-opening, we’re still waiting on guidance when it comes to running school trips again. However, we are still welcoming enquiries for 2021 and beyond and will look to welcome schools back again as soon as we can. If you have any questions or you’d like to make an enquiry, please do get in touch.

Single Activities
Choose from any of our activities for an enjoyable experience in the great outdoors. We can tailor our activities to provide fundamental educational benefits, or simply fill them with fun!
Half & Full Day
Why not combine two or more of our activities for a half or full day of learning outside the classroom? Perhaps a morning of Canoeing on the Beaulieu River and an afternoon of Cycle Orienteering? All of course, promoting a sense of teamwork and problem solving.
Activity Weeks
We can provide you with multi day experiences, perfect for schools looking to fill their end of term activity weeks with fun. Or perhaps create instant bonds and familiarity between students who’ve just met.

Testimonials
Always well organised and fun, with great instructors. I took over my Summer school from a previous colleague and BattleZone is the only thing I have not changed as it is great, year after year.
Fantastic experience for students yet again. Brilliant activities delivered in the right way for what we wanted to get out of the sessions.
All staff were very helpful with my queries prior to booking and on arrival we were welcomed and made to feel very comfortable. I would definitely recommend New Forest Activities who were very professional and helpful. Thank you.
