ABOUT US
What Drives Us
Our philosophy is simple – we believe in the transformative power of outdoor education to create positive and long-lasting change. As expert leaders in the industry, we work closely with schools and groups to identify their unique goals and deliver customised programs that enrich and transform the lives of participants, leaving them with enhanced skills, knowledge, and confidence that last a lifetime.
We are committed to providing students with enduring experiences that shape their character and instil in them the values of resilience, teamwork, leadership, and communication. We want to help our students create memories that will stay with them long after they leave our programs while fostering within them a deep appreciation for the natural world.


Nurturing the Next Gen
The heart of our mission at Belgravia Outdoor Education is to instil a deep love and understanding of nature in our youth. By engaging them in challenging activities under expert guidance, they learn to value and contribute to the environment. Collaborative efforts with Parks Victoria enable us to create immersive experiences that offer students a glimpse into the plateau’s elusive wildlife, fostering a connection with the ecosystem we’re dedicated to preserving.
Belgravia Outdoor Education is committed to providing meaningful and transformative outdoor education experiences for students, helping them develop new skills and perspectives in a safe and supportive environment.
At Belgravia Outdoor Education, we believe that every student deserves the opportunity to explore, learn, and grow outside of the traditional classroom setting.
