Portland Outdoor Centre School Trip

Coastal foraging, fire lighting and cooking are the key ingredients that make up our Bushcraft sessions.
Fish prep (gutting and descaling) followed by advanced cooking are additional elements that can be added to the session depending on the suitability for the group.
On the foreshore, the group will have the opportunity to explore and learn about their environment and consider how to survive in the wild!

Possibly the prime location on the Jurassic Coast to reach the Dorset locations often visited by field studies groups.
- Chesil Beach
- Portland Bill
- Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door

All our activity sessions reach beyond traditional indoor classrooms to build confidence, help mental wellbeing, and promote environmental awareness through hands-on engagement with nature

We offer a range of physical activities, and champion team-work, health and wellbeing in all our pursuits. We operate a challenge by choice policy and we ensure that every child has the opportunity to participate and achieve.

We can guarantee a coach full of tired and happy young people at the end of a residential experience with us!

Team Tasks and Problem-Solving activities are a staple of any activity week; bringing students together, developing fundamental interpersonal skills and creating bonds to last a lifetime. We have endless tasks and challenges to offer. Whether you are looking to build your group's confidence at the start of the week, develop their team working skills and understanding or see what they have learnt by the end of the week, we can tailor the tasks to suit.
Project T.E.A.M ('Together Everyone Achieves More') is our fast-paced problem-solving challenge in which groups collect points by completing mini-challenges spread across the centre. Competing to see which team has worked together best. These tasks are great for engaging the whole of a group as each requires different skills and abilities, allowing all participants to contribute to their teams success.
