Embark on a Journey of Discovery and Resilience

Get lost with us and unlock your inner strength! We will show you how you deal with the challenges of disorientation and uncertainty. In the face of disorientation and uncertainty, we’ll help you navigate through challenges and make confident, well-informed decisions. With a focus on safety and support, we’ll guide you through the essential priorities of survival and equip you with strategies that will elevate your confidence and resilience.

This hands-on experience is grounded in Te Mātaiaho’s elements of Understand, Know and Do.  It is designed to build your personal growth and empower you with practical skills. By the end of the journey, you’ll have the tools to approach challenges like an expert, with a deepened sense of self-awareness, an appreciation for your own strengths, and a stronger connection to te taiao, the natural world.

This immersive adventure is not only engaging, but also highly relevant. The powerful, enduring big ideas are relatable and accessible for both ākonga and kaiako alike. Your newfound knowledge will be highly engaging for your tamariki and easily applied and delivered in a variety of learning contexts.  Together, we’ll work through a dynamic and enjoyable experience—one that will boost your confidence, resilience, and appreciation for the world around you.
