Essex Outdoors School Holiday Activity Days: Harlow
Our action-packed activity day experiences run at our Harlow Centre during the school holidays and are the ideal way for young people aged 8-16 to try exciting new experiences in the outdoors.
Working in groups of around 10 young people, your child will have the opportunity to take part in up to four fun and challenging activities each day, including Archery, Climbing, High Ropes, Stand Up Paddleboards and many more!
Constant supervision during the day by our professional instructors will give parents peace of mind and ensure kids have a memorable day!
All technical equipment is provided - participants just need to bring comfortable (and waterproof!) clothing, a full change of clothing and footwear as well as a towel packed lunch and a drink.
