Incursions for Secondary Schools
Challenging programs with a focus on teamwork, problem solving and resilience.
Teams, Trials and Trivia
✅ Ideal for Years 7 – 12
This program is created to engage even students who are normally reluctant to participate. The session runs as a whole-group experience, with teams rotating through competitive stations that combine physical challenges, puzzle solving, and trivia-based tasks. Students strengthen communication, leadership, and teamwork while responding quickly to changing demands in a dynamic and fast-paced environment.

Clues, Codes & Communications
✅ Ideal for Years 7–12
Students tackle a series of challenging puzzles, multi-step codebreaking activities, and strategic communication tasks that encourage collaboration and sharp thinking. They will navigate their school grounds, analyse complex location clues and try to uncover the code to our final cipher. With layered logic tasks, problem-solving under time pressure, and increasingly abstract navigation tools, this experience sharpens critical thinking, spatial reasoning, and leadership skills in an engaging, fast-paced race for the finish.
