Insight Adventures' personal development camps draw on our years of experience organising adventure learning, cultural immersion and expedition style programmes, to teach young people in areas not necessarily covered during classroom learning.

This 6 day 5 night camp programme, open to students aged 7 to 17, focusses on developing social skills, communication and teamwork through a range of fun and challenging outdoor activities.

With 24 hour supervision and care by Insight Adventures' trained facilitators, all meals, activities, accommodation, transportation and insurance included for the duration of the programme. Students will be divided into groups according to their age and experience just as they would be on their regular activity or residential weeks organised by school.

The programme will take place on Changxing Island, located between Chongming Island and Pudong New Area in northern Baoshan District. Just 1.5 hours away from downtown Shanghai and with a huge range of activity options, this sparsely developed island is the perfect location for students who need to get out of the city without leaving Shanghai.
