About Our Team
Edventure holiday programmes have been established to provide ongoing educational tuition, during the school holiday period.
With a passion for both education and the outdoors, Mark Bridger has designed varying programmes that run during the School Holidays.
As a current and fully registered classroom teacher, Mark places importance on continuing learning especially over the holiday times.
Children love the programmes, especially through gaining knowledge of outdoor concepts and applying new skills in practical outdoor activities.
An average day sees your child involved in oral discussions, reading rich and meaningful text to support activities, completing teamwork and confidence activities in the outdoors, writing recounts and explanations of their experiences and learning theory towards developing new skills.
Our outdoor activities provide real experiences that allow children to become passionate about personal reading and writing.
Common activities on our programmes include...
Fishing, tramping, caving, river crossings, water safety, first aid, compass and map skills, bush survival skills, sunsafety and heaps more!
