Outward Bound New Zealand is a not for profit organization offering personal development courses in the outdoors for New Zealanders young and old. The courses are run from our school in Anakiwa in the Marlborough Sounds.

Outward Bound runs Adapted courses for secondary school students with physical and intellectual disabilities.

These courses are fully funded thanks to Outward Bound’s generous supporters and donors. The only cost to students is getting a pre-course medical done by a GP and travel to and from Picton.

 Adapted courses range from 5-8 days and are based in the Marlborough Sounds. Students build confidence, resilience, and make new friends through activities such as sailing, waka ama, ropes course, and camping. Upcoming course dates are below.
