The students themselves have organised this event and will participate in a full day of team development and team building activities.
The cost of the trip will cover the coach travel to and from the event, it will pay for the use of the facilities at Burrs and includes trained instructors to support every activity on the day. The students will participate in a range of wet and dry activities which will encourage team participation and allow them to explore their own roles in a team. Students have been assigned roles in the organisation and booking of this event, this will allow them to collect evidence for their events management unit.

It is vital that every Business student attends this event; the experiences and evidence gained here is required to achieve their unit 18 and 19 assignment grades.
