"The positive, helpful and flexible approach of all the centre staff impressed us from start to finish and made our jobs very easy. The facilities and food were first rate and the activities extremely well-organised and appropriate."

School activities week overview

A week of fun and opportunity where pupils can experience a wide range of new and exciting land and water based sports. Pupils become aware of a whole new world in the outdoors and develop new skills and increased self-confidence. The week can be a great catalyst to a healthier lifestyle.

Our residential activities weeks and weekends for schools have proved to be an excellent way to give pupils valuable experiences and learning opportunities in a large range of subject areas across the curriculum including Key Skills, PSHE and Citizenship.

Activity weeks also prove invaluable as a teambuilding experience. Trust and team spirit are built throughout the week developing and improving relationships between each other and teachers.

The activities take place in spectacular unspoilt locations where students get a real experience and lasting impression of the sport. An evening programme is included to ensure that the pupils can make the most of their time with us and there is not an excess of free time.

The programme below is an example of a customised week at Outdoor Adventure. When you book, our Chief Instructor will discuss your needs and the outcomes you wish to achieve and will then customise your programme with you.

This programme will help you address many Key Stage 2-4 curriculum requirements.
