Lichtaart & the Antwerp Kempen with your class
Activities are designed to build physical confidence, ecological curiosity and teamwork simultaneously. Pond life identification, freshwater invertebrate studies and woodland surveys provide strong curriculum links, while kayaking and orienteering challenges give the week real adventure. A campfire evening brings everything together.
On the Move manages the full programme, specialist guides and full-board accommodation. ABELIO safety certification and L’Office quality standards apply to every trip.
Trip highlights
Wading in to discover the creatures of a pond or stream with nets and identification sheets — real ecologist's work for primary age
Kayaking on a nearby waterway and survival challenges in the Kempen woods — physical adventure with genuine teamwork demands
Building structures with wood and rope, and evenings around the campfire — cooperative, creative, and the moments children remember longest
