OUTDOOR LEARNING & ADVENTURE ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN
OUTDOOR LEARNING
Delivering outstanding outdoor education and adventure through our Caldecotte Xperience centre
Specialist after school activities and outdoor education centre
We deliver outstanding outdoor adventure activities and outdoor education through The Caldecotte Xperience centre located by the lake on the edge of Milton Keynes. We enable young people of all abilities to learn to challenge themselves, have fun and work together discovering what they can achieve rather than what they can’t. Our facilities are regarded as some of the best in the region combining after school activities and outdoor activities for children.
This is a small, specialist learning and adventure centre which offers a personal experience to every young person, and because we are small we really can build the specific programme you want for each individual group.
We offer the largest range of accessible land and water-based outdoor education activities in the region for young people with disabilities – including those with the most complex needs. Our instructors and staff all have additional needs specialist training and are experienced in delivering sessions with varying support requirements so all activities can be enjoyed by everyone whatever their ability.
