Expedition Overview
The trip is led by a BCU (British Canoe Union) qualified Kayak coach, and includes trip preparation, trip planning, skills training and two days of paddling as a group. Students and staff will paddle sea kayaks with bulkheads with day supplies being stored in the kayaks, and the remainder of the kit being carried on the support boat.
The route offers both coastal ‘hand railing’ and short open water crossings from one point to another. The group is constantly monitored by the support boat, and the location offers excellent shelter from adverse conditions.
Activities within the program
Activities within this program include: Ocean Kayaking, Camping and Team Building.
NOTE: Some activities are dependant on weather and may require changes on the day according to site conditions & dynamic Risk Assessment
The adventure groups will all be encouraged to develop a group identity and work together as a team during the program. The groups can be chosen at random or follow class or house structure. We will liaise with teaching staff on this.
Our challenge-by-choice approach enables each student to achieve their own successful adventure in the context of their own aspirations free from peer or instructors pressure. We have found during adventure activities, the greatest achievements are never in terms of the distance leapt or the height climbed and that in all our adventure activities everyone has a role to play.
