Specialising in immersive, eco-nature experiences, Up The Creek is a regenerative relationship-building company. We strengthen organisational bonds while fostering environmental stewardship. Our collaborative programs reconnect people with nature, themselves, and each other.
What Up the Creek can offer your students
In an era where wellbeing and academic success are increasingly challenged by digital overwhelm, experiential learning with Up The Creek offers a powerful balance. When young people step away from screens and into nature's embrace, something magical happens.
The constant buzz of modern life fades into a peaceful calm, allowing genuine connections to flourish - with themselves, each other, and the living world around them. Our nature based learning programs facilitate this transformed mindset to ensure noticeable change on return to your school.
Nature-based learning programs that inspire change
Our regenerative school adventure camps do not just offer outdoor activities; they create transformative experiences where students become active participants in nature's renewal while discovering their own capacity for positive change. In these moments of quiet connection and purposeful action, we nurture environmental stewards of tomorrow.
Send your students away into nature and expect improved results on their return, not to mention more enriching relations between teachers and students.
Up the Creek seeks to respond to the contemporary disconnect by creating immersive experiences rooted in Progressive education and regenerative tourism. Our programs empower both students and adults to form meaningful connections with themselves, their communities and the more-than-human world. In collaboration with Victorian river systems, we learn with the flow - journeying along the lifeblood of Melbourne, the Birrarung, and the ancient currents of the Dungala. By cultivating these relationships, we aim to inspire ethical, embodied responses to the environmental and social challenges of our time. Our commitment is to regenerate the bond between people and planet - reigniting a sense of belonging, awe and possibility.
In a time marked by disconnection - from self, community, and the natural world - Up the Creek offers a vital platform for reconnection and regeneration. We recognise that the health and well-being of individuals, communities and the environment are deeply interwoven. Research consistently shows that nurturing a relationship with nature not only supports individual and collective well-being but also contributes to positive environmental outcomes, through developing reciprocal relationships with the natural world.
Up the Creek environmental education camps provide a gateway for your students to collaborate with self, others and nature.
