On June 27th, we had the pleasure of hosting our inaugural open day event. Local dignitaries and educators joined us for a day filled with inspiring talks, engaging demonstrations, and a tour of our remarkable Highsted Outdoor Activity Centre near Sittingbourne.
Visitors were treated to firsthand accounts of the positive impact our programmes have on children and young people. Current users of our provision shared their personal experiences, highlighting the transformative nature of our military-inspired approach. Education professionals also provided valuable insights into the benefits of incorporating our programs into their curriculum.

From outdoor adventures to team building activities, visitors witnessed firsthand how we improve outcomes in behavior, attendance, and attainment. Our commitment to empowering educators and motivating students to reach their full potential was evident throughout the event.
