Parent Information Evening 29 th September 2011

Great activities

To appreciate the great outdoors

Plenty of choice of food

To try new things & learn new skills

To overcome our fears

To become more independent

To learn to work as a team

Friendship

To have fun

Manor Adventure Poem Manor Adventure is a wonderful place, An area of fun and wide open space. The instructors are very, very kind, If you don’t do the activities they won’t mind. Kayaking, fencing, it’s all there, You’ll get very messy and mess up what you wear. Blind trail is weird, you can’t see a thing, If you don’t like heights – avoid abseiling! Archery hit the spot, as did the food, Meal times always put me in a good mood. In the evening when it was time for bed, We all really wanted to rest our heads. Drifting off into a deep, restful sleep, Before we knew it, the alarm clock went BEEP! Sam

What do ‘Manor Adventure’ say?  We aim to provide a high quality experience in a safe and caring environment, for the development of young people through the provision of educational adventure courses at our residential activity centres.  Many companies concentrate solely on providing fun. We regard this as an opportunity wasted. Of course, fun and new experiences are an important part of any course, but by working with schools we are able to bring the curriculum to life to help motivate and inspire children.
