They will witness Wales sea-faring heritage with visits to Porthcawl Lifeboat station, Cardiff Yacht Club and the Maritime Museum, Swansea.
They will take in Welsh history with visits to the Blaenavon World Heritage Site and Newport Transporter Bridge, witness some Welsh culture by enjoying Cwmbach Male Voice Choir rehearse and have a chance to see renewable energy in action with a visit to Pen y Cymoedd Wind Energy Project.
They will also have the opportunity to join with welsh schoolchildren, taking part in outdoor pursuits at the Rotary Youth Leadership Award course in Storey Arms.
