Full Kokoda Schools Program Kagi Village Stay > Expedition Overview

The Kokoda Track School Expeditions have been specifically designed to embrace the Curriculum Standards and Values that every school and student endeavor to achieve. It covers Leadership, Geography, History, Science, Responsibility, Cultural Diversity, Organisation, Personal and Physical Challenges and much more.

For a few years now many schools have been walking the Track with us. Patterson River, Benalla College, Carnegie School, Caloundra College, St Francis Xavier and more have all trekked the Track with us and had a great time. We offer 3 variations to the Kokoda Track for your school. The first is walking the entire Track in our Australian Led trips. The second option is to walk half the Track from Kokoda to Kagi (possibly the most relevant part of the Track) and spending 4 days in a Village along the Track such as Kagi. The third option is doing the full Track with 2 days in Kagi Village. We provide information nights for your school to educate teachers, parents and students and also have our own Risk Management Policy in place to cover all facets of school policies.

The 90km Kokoda Track was the scene of bitter fighting in 1942 as the Japanese advanced towards Port Moresby. Many Japanese and Australian soldiers died along the Track, both in battle and from malaria. As interest in Australia’s cultural identity and recent history grows, walking the Kokoda Track has become a rite of passage for a new generation of Australians.

Our expeditions can be booked for any week of the year for your school group from 6 upwards.That means you tell us when you want to run the trip and we will accommodate you.  All food, equipment and guides are provided. You only need to bring your personal gear and bedding.
