A residential is like an extra long school trip where you stay overnight - usually at an activity centre or accommodation where large school groups can stay.

It is an opportunity for children to spend a few nights away from home, take part in fun and challenging activities and develop new skills.

Activities often take place outdoors and can include things like rock climbing, canoeing and hiking.

Many young people look forward to their school residential trip, with others feeling a little nervous about being away from their parents for a few nights - perhaps for the first time.

It is perfectly normal to feel uneasy ahead of your trip, but there are always adults to talk to if you need to chat.
