Outdoor education is a key component of all primary schools’ curriculum with GABC benefiting from stable annual recurring bookings. 

GABC is a market leader in the sector and the brand has strong potential for replication on the eastern seaboard. It consistently gains positive feedback from teachers and students. Its market leader status is retained though a high degree of student engagement and the unique instructor lead onsite activities that form the GABC model of the GABC staff responsible for all the activates and therefore not reliant on the schools own teachers.
