OUTDOOR EDUCATION

Outdoor education or Adventure Based Experiential Learning courses are primarily concerned with the development of....

• Self concept, self esteem and resilience
• Community living skills
• Perceptions of human and physical environments

The outdoor activity is structured to create opportunities for students to focus on themselves, relationships with others and the environment.  The activities that we use to facilitate these aims include kayaking, rock climbing, sailing, surfing, bush walking, high challenge ropes courses, caving, snorkelling and group initiatives.

Accompany Outdoors offers programs from 1 to 22 days duration.  Our preference is to conduct sequential programs across a range of year levels, as this allows learning outcomes to be transferred to the students home and school lives.  Each program is individually structured to suit your school's needs.
