What We Do

About POET

Perry Outdoor Education Trust is championing accessible outdoor education programmes in schools.

We are prioritising affordability and safety, to ensure that young people from diverse socio-economic backgrounds can participate. This commitment bridges equity gaps, allowing even those from vulnerable communities to access enriching experiences that nurture their well-being and personal growth.

Our programmes are strategically designed to build upon one another, creating a cohesive and progressive learning journey. This method empowers young individuals to develop skills, acquire knowledge, and cultivate resilience over time. By offering a spectrum of experiences deeply rooted in their local surroundings, we aim to foster a profound sense of connection, pride, and stewardship for their environment.

Utilising teachers as programme facilitators fosters strong educator-student relationships, extending the impact of these learning experiences beyond the camp.

This approach ensures that the benefits of outdoor education resonate within the school and the broader community, contributing to a positive culture and a supportive environment for young individuals.

Our dedicated POET Coordinators, seasoned outdoor educators, collaborate with teachers to guide them in providing outdoor experiences for their students. This collaboration reduces reliance on expensive outdoor providers, making outdoor education more accessible and eliminating barriers that may deter participation.
