Oaker Wood Leisure School Trip

We offer tailor made itineraries from our diverse range of adventurous activities including High Ropes, Low Ropes, Rafting, Pizza Making, Den Building, Target Shooting, It's a Knock Out, Quad Bike Trekking and Paintball. A visit to Oaker Wood challenges young people both physically and mentally and encourages them to work as a team. They will have ample opportunity to improve their listening skills and build on their independence while on a residential with us as we encourage young people to be responsible for their own pod area and to help around camp with such tasks as washing up and fire lighting.

Our rafting activities help young people to feel at home near to, on and in the water in a safe and reassuring environment. We teach the young people about potential dangers and ensure they know how to be safe around water.

Our Woodland Navigation Trail is themed around Orienteering (please note: this is NOT a full Orienteering Experience) children will use maps to Navigate around a woodland trail, whilst following the map they will be looking for items/pictures (wildlife) as they journey through our picturesque trees and forest routes.

Perfect for children in years 3, 4 5, and 6, they'll have the chance to gain countryside and wildlife facts and insights from our instructors as they guide them along the trail. As they explore, children will punch their route card at each Orienteering Checkpoint they visit.

Many of our activities have an element of team building, especially our Borneo Low Ropes Course, Rafting, Woodland Krypton and Woodland Adventure. We feel team building is a key skill set for children and something we focus many of our activities around.
