2. The Kingswood Experience Increasing confidence in themselves and their own abilities Developing new friendships and strengthening existing ones Trying new activities and igniting interest in new hobbies Experiencing the camaraderie of an overnight stay and an experience shared Development of a healthy sense of self awareness and empathy for others and their environment Increasing concentration, listening skills and attention span Greater respect for those – both teachers and peers alike – who have shared the same journey Accepting challenges and overcoming fears

3. It’s all in a day... Breakfast between 7.30am and 9am First activities start around 9.30am 10 minute juice break Lunch time 12:05pm to 1:15pm A full afternoon of activities 10 minute juice break Evening meal 5:05pm to 6:15pm Evening entertainment from 8pm, followed by cocoa 6 sessions per day, plus one final evening session. Group sizes of 11 or 12, plus a fully qualified Kingswood instructor and an adult Students encouraged and praised during activities but are NEVER forced to take part if they are not comfortable doing so. While other groups will also be present on centre during our stay, all day programmes and activities are conducted separately.

4. Home from home All residential dormitories are warm, comfortable and 100% secure. Girls and boys sleep in separate areas and teachers rooms are located close by to allow for plenty of close supervision. All bedding is provided on centre - one of the very first tasks for all students is making up their own beds! Practise at home first!

5. Sleeping Arrangements I have done my best to put the children with at least one friend request, as appropriate, for either bedroom or activity group assignments. These will be revealed when we are en-route.
