Our Adventure Programme provides the children ample time to explore the great outdoors, embrace thrilling challenges and broaden their appreciation for the natural world.
Children thrive in their adventure sessions, bringing transferable skills with them to the classroom and other areas of the curriculum".
Dr Mark Caddy - Senior Deputy Head
Collaborating with Mendip Activity Centre, Belmont Estate, and Farmlink we have curated a bespoke outdoor educational experience, tailored to enrich the learning journey of every child in our Junior School. This includes:
- Fortnightly Adventure half day sessions for each year group.
- A range of activities around the Mendips, facilitated by the highly trained and experienced professionals at Mendip Activity Centre which include archery, caving and canoeing. Children follow a main pursuit each term (Rock, Snow or Water) where they complete a progressive course.
- Optional expeditions at the end of many of the main pursuit courses.
- Adventure Plus sessions which are teacher-led and focus on enriching the half termly outdoor theme.
Embracing sustainability as a core principle, our Adventure Programme aims to minimise transport, eliminate packaging and reduce paper waste, ensuring a responsible and impactful approach to learning. These explorations instill respect, a responsibility and a love for the natural world.
