Primary School Adventures

Adventure Weeks
We specialise in providing residential adventure weeks for school pupils in Primary 6 & 7. These educational and exciting programmes usually run from Monday to Friday and offer four nights and up to four and a half challenging and educational activity days. Your pupils will enjoy a range of adventurous activities both on and off site, allowing them to discover more about themselves and about working as a team.
