STUDENT CAMPING TRIPS

Wild Haven Resort offers all its resources to focus on providing a great learning experience to students. We are fully committed to the need for environment education, and our primary objective is to fulfill this need by providing structured tours for student groups from schools across the country.  

The need for environment education

Care and concern for the environment and natural resources has to be made an essential part of the learning process in growing children so that as citizens of tomorrow, they take the responsibility of preserving the planet for posterity.

Although school curriculum now incorporates Environmental Studies as an essential subject, we propose to provide value addition to students with an actual "hands-on" learning experience in the forests, which would strongly reinforce classroom lessons.

How we propose to help fulfill that need:

The best way of imparting environment education to school children is by giving them access to wilderness areas where they can explore the laboratory of life, learn about nature, and the importance of preserving the countless species of fauna and flora which share the earth with them.

With this viewpoint, Wild Haven Resort offers student groups the chance to come to Bandhavgarh tiger reserve under our conducted Environment Education Tours.

Salient features of the tour:

Normally, the duration of the tour at Wild Haven would be 2 nights & 3 days (excluding actual travel time).

In case arriving by train, we shall take charge of the group at Katni or Umaria railway station, and drive to the resort by road.

Suitable shared accommodation, all meals, vehicles for jungle safaris, film shows, excursions will be provided by us as pre-arranged.

School Principals / Teachers / Tour operators can plan specific tours of their student groups in consultation with us.

A group consisting of  35  to 40 students, accompanied by 2 - 3 teachers, would be ideally suited to spend quality time with us. School authorities are advised to chalk out firm dates for their groups so that confirmed bookings may be obtained well in time.
