We offer a range of adventurous activities and outdoor learning opportunities for school groups of all ages. We have a reputation for excellence and professionalism and operate to the highest safety standards. • Situated on the shores of the Solent. Ashore, historic hangars accommodate a state of the art climbing complex, the only indoor velodrome in Southern England and a dry ski slope. We are also extremely well equipped to offer students a broad range of field study investigations, being on the edge of the New Forest National Park and having nearby access to marine, coastal, river and woodland environments.
