Clifton High School's close links with the Mendip Activity Centre, Belmont Estate and Farmlink provide a well-curated, bespoke outdoor education experience, tailored to enrich the learning journey of every child in our Infant School. These include:
- Visits to the Mendip Activity Centre, where children try introductory outdoor pursuits sessions like canoeing, climbing and bush crafts
- Set within our own woodland area, Forest School sessions are led by teachers who engage children in outdoor activities like nature studies, art, and creative writing.
- Beach School is where art, design, construction, science, and drama unite in this unique beach setting.
- Farm School exposes children to animal and crop farming.
- Trips to Belmont Estate, where children delve into educational programs centered around rewilding, sustainability, conservation and the wonders of nature.
Embracing sustainability as a core School principle is reinforced through our Adventure Programme as we aim to minimise transport, eliminate packaging and reduce paper waste, ensuring a responsible and impactful approach to learning. This manner of exploration instills respect, a responsibility and love for the natural world.
