• What's the itinerary?

  SUMMER  This is an outdoor-based Kids Club, so we choose the best and safest activities for the weather conditions. A typical week includes: 3 days of watersports at Sandbanks (Kayaking, Paddle boarding, Raft Building, Crabbing, Beach Games), one day of bushcraft in the woods (fire lighting, campfire cooking, archery) and one day adventuring over the chain ferry to Studland to spend a day exploring the sand dunes and playing games.
  
  AUTUMN We head to the woods for 3 days. We'll pick up the children from Sandbanks by minibus and head to a different beautiful private woodland each day. The plan is a Zombie Archery Day, a Pumpkin Carving and Fire Lighting Day and a Halloween Fancy Dress and Bushcraft Cookery School Day. Prompt 08.30 arrival is essential so we can catch the 09.00 ferry. Don't be late!
  For this 3-day woodland bonanza, make sure you wear old clothes and trainers. You'll be getting muddy - that's a given! You'll also need a packed lunch, warm layers, a waterproof jacket and refillable water bottle.
