The Classic course is exactly that, the classic Outward Bound experience for 18 to 26 year olds. Over the 21 day adventure you will experience all outdoor elements and activities Outward Bound has to offer. However, sailing, kayaking, bushcraft and navigation comes second place to the challenge of believing there is more in you, and you can achieve your dreams if you persevere.

Some benefits of a Classic course are that you will:

1. Challenge yourself and push your limits 

2. Reflect, discover what is important to you and determine your future direction

3. Learn about yourself from both success and failure to take your confidence and motivation to the next level 

4. Discover what it takes to create effective relationships and be part of a successful team

5. Develop a stronger sense of personal responsibility in your responses to real and challenging situations. 

"I learnt a great deal from this experience, like no matter how hard you push yourself you can always go further." David, Classic student.
