On-Site ActivitiesSix acres of parkland, indoor spaces, and open playing fields.

Keswick has six acres of level parkland, including shaded grass areas and open playing fields, giving school groups plenty of space for games, team challenges and outdoor activities.

Teachers can use the open spaces for games, group challenges, leadership activities, team-building sessions and plenty more. These shared experiences are often where students grow in confidence, build friendships and learn how to work together.

It's always helpful to have a wet-weather plan, and Keswick’s shared indoor spaces and meeting areas give groups options for discussions, workshops, indoor games, reflection time or quieter activities.

Off-Site ActivitiesSchool-friendly activities, local attractions and outdoor learning.

One of the benefits of staying at Keswick is being close to the many activities and attractions Rotorua has to offer. To help with planning, we have put together a range of ideas for school groups.
