Action-adventure package
Designed to make the most of the natural world around us, this package really takes the challenge up a level. Forget simulated experiences indoors and instead engage your pupils with exhilarating activities in the great outdoors. You’ll see the difference that a genuine experience makes as your group tackles the thrills of natural rock surfaces or man-made structures including bridges and viaducts, breathe in fresh country air as they prepare to take a leap of faith, or paddle down the river as cool water slaps against the side of their canoe. Teamwork is key as the adventure begins. Pupils are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone to try different things and take on new challenges. With the support of our experienced staff, pupils will take on a range of activities, each one intended to improve their skills, strengthen friendships and help them grow in confidence.
