Combine action-packed activities with deep dives into faith and apologetics.

One day you’ll go in depth on questions of faith and truth, the next you’ll be skiing powder at Vassfjellet or surfing waves in Bali. Here you’ll get spiritual input combined with adrenaline in a unique folk high school year. A year for those who want to grow in faith while also experiencing adventures and travel together with others.

Apologetics and Bible teaching

Throughout the year we’ll have teaching in apologetics (defense of the faith) and Bible studies. We’ll go through topics such as:

The teaching is given by skilled lecturers with solid knowledge in apologetics. The goal is to give you confidence in your own faith, spiritual nourishment, and the competence to respond well and thoughtfully to questions and objections. You’ll gain tools to think critically, communicate faith in a respectful and convincing way, and grow both personally and spiritually.

Action

We want to give you experiences that let you step outside your comfort zone and feel the adrenaline pumping. You don’t need any prior experience – we’ll try a wide range of activities so you can get the most out of your year:

Near Trondheim – close to the city, close to nature.

Rødde Folk High School is located just outside Trondheim – the “big little city” offering food, history, art, culture, nature, shopping, and much more. At the same time, you’ll have mountains and forests right nearby, with opportunities for hiking, climbing, and skiing in Vassfjellet. It truly gives you the best of both worlds: the energy of the city and the calm of nature.

A school day at Rødde can mean fresh snow under your feet, hours in the studio creating new tracks, cultural exchange on exciting trips abroad, and countless opportunities to try something new. At Rødde, you don’t just pursue your interests – you share experiences and learn together with people who may become your closest friends.

Here, you’ll have the freedom to learn and grow without the pressure of exams and grades. You’ll build knowledge and skills while also experiencing personal growth and development. This is a place to create, explore, and step outside your comfort zone in a safe environment. No wonder our students often say: “This is the best year of my life!”
