Activities        Equipment        Curriculum              

We pride ourselves on being an Outdoor Education Centre with a trip to Rhos y Gwaliau being so much more than just about the activities. Time and time again teachers tell us how much their children grow and develop in terms of personal and social development. The mountains are a memorable classroom to look at things first hand. Many of the following areas will be touched upon during the week and we can always stress certain elements in line with your course aims and objectives or up coming classroom lessons.

  1.   PSHE: Teamwork, organisation, social interaction, nutrition, healthy life style and exercise

  2. Geography: Stream and Rivers, Mountain Geology, Water and rock cycles, changing landscapes

  3. Biology

  4. History

  5. Science

We can also build a number of curriculum based activities into the programme if you would like.
