The Course has been specifically designed with a coordinated curriculum that has measurable outcomes and is directed towards the Five Big Skills in Five Focus Areas. There’s no examination at the end of the course, but students do receive a certificate of completion, and they will of course take away their newly discovered skills and personal awareness, too.

Students board with uson site for just over 3 months. During this time they’ll be able to take part in an assortment of learning activities that are both in the classroom, as well as outside in the community and local environment. All throughout the course, we encourage students to participate and develop their own personal skills.

It’s not all academic learning at TFL though. A big part involves physical training and sport that’s all geared towards the culmination of the course. Training for this is not only physical but mental, both of which promote general wellbeing; and of course team work is very important, too. This training/conditioning takes place all throughout the course, and we will climb either Mt. Meru or Mt Kilimanjaro in the final week. This is when students are able to demonstrate not only their own physical abilities, but their willingness to work together as a team for everyone’s benefit.
