Low Ropes
Nestled in our woodland, our natural low ropes course features a personal challenge course and several team challenges.
Never any more than 50cms off the ground, the low ropes course is about independence, problem-solving and co-operation as students wind their way around nets, wires, woobly planks and more!
Archery Active & Bushcraft
Archery Active
Take part in our very own activity, a combination of paintballing, archery and dodgeball. The range has an apocalyptic feel, perfect for all groups.
​
Bushcraft
With 200 acres of ancient woodland, our site has plenty of clearings to learn the ultimate bushcraft and survival skill sessions. This session will be focused on fire lighting. Shelters, fire lighting, knifework, flora and fauna, the possibilities are endless.
Orienteering & Team Games
Orienteering
The children will learn the fundamentals of orienteering, starting with games and exercises before heading off into the woodland to try different orienteering courses. Orienteering is great for independence, teamwork and fitness.
​
Team Games​
These exciting, short games are great fun and will have everyone involved, active and laughing!
Problem Solving Challenges
Problem Solving Challenges
Work together, communicate, plan, adapt, think and overcome!Teams will complete problem-solving missions set around our woodland. Every mission has been designed to put your team's communication, ingenuity, delegation, team work and decisiveness to the test.
​
Frisbee Golf
A simple, straightforward and competitive sport. Similar to golf but with specially made frisbee discs thrown towards metal baskets designed to catch it. The aim is to throw it in as few throws as possible. Games, challenges and a tournament.
Children will be supervised by our fully qualified instructors over lunchtime.
Our team will ensure everyone enjoys a healthy, nutritious hot cooked lunch and is encouraged to try new foods.
​
This is a new brilliant campaign aimed at families to provide low-cost cooking tips,
advice and giveaways to make it as easy as possible to serve affordable veg-packed
meals
