Outdoor Activities and Team Building

Eco Adventure activities are designed to gain confidence and promote team building skills for all age groups. They have proved very popular with Key Stage 2 and Key Stage 3, especially as a Year 7 introductory course.
Each activity is taught as a half day or evening session (depending on time of year). Courses can be built entirely around Eco Adventure or integrated with science and/or geography fieldwork. The majority of our adventure activities are based in the Centre grounds.
