Activity Structure
How We Organise Each Adventure
Every session follows a carefully planned structure that balances instruction with free exploration, ensuring children feel both supported and challenged.
- 01
Circle Time and Planning
Each session begins with a gathering where children share observations from previous adventures and help plan the day's activities. This builds communication skills and gives children ownership of their learning experience.
- 02
Skill Building Activities
Focused instruction on specific outdoor skills such as knot-tying, plant identification or fire safety. These structured lessons provide the foundation for independent exploration and problem-solving.
- 03
Free Exploration Time
Children apply their new skills in self-directed activities, whether building dens, creating nature art or investigating interesting discoveries. Adults provide support whilst encouraging independence and creativity.
- 04
Reflection and Sharing
Sessions conclude with children sharing their discoveries and reflecting on what they've learned. This helps consolidate learning and builds confidence in expressing ideas and experiences.
