Learning with us
Schools at Trevassack
We work closely with schools and home education groups from all over mid and West Cornwall.
All of our instructors are fully qualified, DBS checked and passionate in sharing their skills with students on the water.
We offer a flexible variety of options and packages, including one-off taster sessions, multi-activity days or a regular programme of sessions. These are an excellent way to build a young person’s confidence and team building skills within an active, outdoor setting.
Our flexibility means we can create different packages to meet your needs, and our Trevassack Lake site specialises in watersports for all, with experienced SEND-trained Instructors, adapted kit and accessible changing facilities. We can cater for a wide variety of disabilities, so please do get in touch if you’d like to learn more about what we can provide.
Regular Sessions
Most ‘terms’ are booked in blocks of 6 sessions over 6 weeks, however each term can be tailored to the availability of the group, from 2 sessions to infinite.
Working towards the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) Youth Sailing syllabus, as well as our in-house WAVE syllabus, these regular sessions have been proven to develop a student’s confidence, competence and resilience.
In partnership with the RYA OnBoard programme, our sailing sessions complements school curriculums and teaches invaluable life skills.
Activity Days & Taster Sessions
Sailing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, raft building and team activities can be combined to create an exciting package for students from year 3 upwards.
We provide all the specialist kit needed for a 2 hour taster, a half day or a full day of watersports.
