WHO WE ARE
International Schools Surf Camp is an Outdoor Education Program, specializing in surfing.
ISSC is designed and conducted by former International School Outdoor Education professionals for International School students and teachers.
We specialise in surf camps where students gain valuable skills on wave riding, ocean safety, awareness and rescue skills. We also educate on the marine environment and create opportunities for friendship and other fun activities, which have a lasting and positive impact on their lives and futures.
WE MAKE IT EASY
As a former International School Head of P.E. and Outdoor Education, the director of International Schools Surf Camp knows the amount of work and organization it takes to make a successful trip. We apply our thorough knowledge and understanding of safety and security requirements by schools.
Our aim is to make this as easy as possible by doing all the organizing for teachers and trip leaders, while providing detailed Risk Management Plans, Standard Operating Procedures and Emergency Plans.
MORE THAN A FIELD TRIP
We provide visiting schools with transformative learning experiences inspired by nature. Students learn to challenge themselves in an engaging environment as we offer expeditions for Activity weeks, Week without Walls, IB CAS trips, Outdoor Education as well as IntAward trips.
We also combine surf camps with Service Learning projects as well as Outdoor Adventure and Cultural Immersion, tailored to International schools’ specific requirements.
WE KEEP IT SAFE
We tailor make trips for schools and assist teachers/trip leaders all the way by providing a comprehensive INFO PACK, It contains everything required by schools for expeditions to be approved as well as preparations for the trip, including our comprehensive Risk Management and Child Safeguarding documentation and policies. We also include the teacher’s costs in our quotes.
