Go Ape Launches New Outdoor Home Education Days
This May, Go Ape will introduce a number of brand-new sessions for home-schooled children to experience adventure and discover the outdoors.
Who Are Go Ape?
Go Ape are a Learning Outside of the Classroom (LOTC), School Travel Award (STA) winning and Gold RoSPA Leisure Safety approved provider. These new sessions aim to give home-schooled pupils the same opportunity that children in schools have.
Go Ape were founded in 2002 and ever since have offered individuals the chance to live life adventurously. At 34 locations nationwide, thrill-seekers of all ages can escape the everyday as they challenge themselves on award-winning forest adventures. They are guided by three core values: keeping the “adventure” in adventure; being socially and environmentally responsible – without being preachy; and doing the right thing.
The Rewards
Senior Sales Manager, George Nolan, says, “Go Ape believe that everything is more fun outside, including learning! Numerous studies prove the benefits that engaging outdoor experiences can have for young people, from developing confidence and wellbeing to improving communication skills.
Learning outdoors is the perfect way to help children grow their natural curiosity, improve their physical and mental health, and boost their self-confidence. Plus, an early-life appreciation of nature can lead to a greater desire to protect the environment as they grow.
The new Home Education days will be available at more than 20 locations across the UK for a discounted rate and participating adults will also qualify for these rates.
