We recognize the profound impact that physically challenging outdoor experiences can have on a young person's holistic development - including their intellectual, physical, spiritual, social, and moral growth. We believe that Outdoor Education (OE) is more important than ever before.
At UWC Thailand, we take a comprehensive approach to learning, extending beyond the classroom to immerse our students in the breathtaking natural diversity of Phuket and beyond. Our Outdoor Education programs are designed to cultivate a lifelong love of outdoor pursuits, instilling in our students a deep appreciation for the natural world.
To achieve this goal, we weave outdoor programs into the very fabric of UWC Thailand.
Our approach includes:
Activity-specific Outdoor Education units
An integrated Outdoor Learning program
Cross-subject collaboration
Co-curricular outdoor activities
The Duke of Edinburgh International Award
Outdoor conservation and environmental stewardship program
Outdoor Education Camps & Expeditions
Through this array of risk-appropriate learning experiences, our students develop integrity and responsibility, gaining a profound understanding of and respect for the environment. The result is a transformative educational experience that empowers our students to thrive both inside and outside the classroom.
