A weekend of adventure and outward bound activites at PGL Osmington Bay
What’s included:
– All activity instruction, supervision and use of specialist equipment.
– Engaging adventure activities on land and water to develop different skills.
– Full board accommodation.
– A PGL ‘Groupie’ who will look after you and your group for your entire stay
– A full evening entertainment programme tailored for your group
The activities are aimed at children/students 7-17yrs (ie. born between 28 Oct 2001 – 25 Oct 2012 inclusive)
Children aged 5 & 6yrs old (at the time of the trip, ie born between 28 Oct 2012 – 25 Oct 2014) may also book on. Participation in the activities for 5 & 6yr olds is at the discretion of the PGL instructor per activity as it is subject to height/build because they need to fit the harness/helmet/other equipment/etc. The PGL instructor’s decision is final. The price for 5 & 6yr olds is reduced.
This trip is intended for HE families to enjoy together. . It will run along side the PGL Geography Field Trip which is taking place at the same time.
All children aged 11yrs and below will need to be accompanied by a parent on this trip.
We may take unaccompanied students aged 13yr+ if personally agreed in advance by either Karen or Lou. Please contact either of those two directly before booking to arrange. We would expect that to be exceptional, not least because due to adult ratios/insurance, there is a limit to how many unaccompanied under 18s that we can take overall.
You are responsible for transporting your family to and from PGL Osmington Bay.
If you are interested in being a responsible adult for unaccompanied children aged 13yrs+ and hold (or are willing to obtain) an enhanced DBS certificate) then please contact us.
(However, you will still have to pay for your own adult space)
If groups of friends/families are going, you may nominate the people you would like to be grouped with for the activities and roomed with (see below for further details of how to do that)
