In Bear Grylls Survival School, a diverse group of kids aged 12-15 will leave all their much-loved technology behind as they head into the rugged mountains of Snowdonia in Wales for an action-packed two week trip. Bear and his team of experts will be on hand to teach them all of the tools needed to take on the wilderness, from skills like making a fire and building a shelter to practical techniques such as crossing rivers and abseiling down cliffs. They will also learn how teamwork, perseverance and resilience are critical to success. The young explorers will have to work together and put the skills they've learnt into practice to accomplish a challenging survival exercise in the final episodes.
