School Activity Trips: Team Initiative Games

For future school activity trips why not try team initiative games. We most often associate team building activities with adults in a corporate environment. However, pupils can benefit from participating in these activities too. It is important for them to explore and implement skills that they will need later on in life.

School Activity Trips: Team Initiative Games

Skills such as communication, problem solving and collaboration are used in all areas of life. Our team initiative games empower pupils to learn and perfect these, and other, skills. What’s more is that they’ll have fun whilst doing it. These activities will get your pupils laughing and bonding, otherwise they wouldn’t work!

The aim of our team initiative games is to help pupils improve their logic and problem-solving skills. They’ll need to develop unique ways to think about tasks and try problem solving methods they haven’t used before. This will enable your pupils to tackle issues that they face in their day-to-day school life and eventually jobs.

School Activity Trips: Team Initiative Games

Team initiative games come in lots of different forms:

Logic/Problem Solving

These games involve collaborating to solve a puzzle. They can be based on physical activities or sitting down to calculate a strategy. The pupils are presented with a scenario or challenge that they must overcome by working as a team.

Creative

Our team initiative games with a creative spin mean collaborating with each other to produce an end result. They usually take the form of each person contributing something to the project. The goal here is to set up a project where everyone must first work together to find out which part of the project they want to take and how they can help. Pupils will learn the importance of communicating and providing constant updates on their progress.

Challenging

If you chose we can organise to set a difficult challenge for your pupils and find out how they overcome it. Rather than working together to solve a puzzle, your pupils will have to make difficult decisions.

Fun

Some team initiative games are simply fun! By doing a pleasant activity together, your pupils will feel positive towards one another and create a bond. These are our “Ice breaker” challenges.
