Do you have kids top occupy in the holidays? Are you keen on your children being exposed to the outdoors and empowering themselves with skills that will stay with them for the rest of their lives? Are you struggling to make time to get away with the kids and feel that they are losing out? Are your kids spending too much time behind the TV and computer screen?The programmes are split into two age catagories, which involve different levels of participation and time away from home.
Just for Juniors! June 28-30 (Monday to Wednesday) | Age 8-12 years
This Cape Town based programme is aimed at Junior School kids who want to get out and try something adventurous during the holidays. A different activity will be done each day and you can opt to do the whole programme or just pick and choose which activities appeal to you. Selected activities will be repeated on the Thursday and Friday. Programme may change, based on weather.
Prices are based on parents dropping off and collecting kids from the activity venues but transport can be arranged if preferred (subject to minimum numbers). All equipment and facilitators are supplied. Kids must bring along a packed lunch. We will supply a detailed kit list on confirmation of booking. Numbers are limited and group size will not exceed 12 kids, with 2 facilitators.

Parent’s Included June 15-16 | All ages
Come and feel the Force of Nature with your kids – and don’t be put off by the fact that it’s winter; you’ll be surprised at how much fun roughing it can be. Arrive on the evening of June 15 and settle in to your camp on the banks of the Palmiet. Enjoy a meal around the campfire and hit the sleeping bag for a cosy night’s sleep. The next day will be spent trying your hand at abseiling and/or tackling the rapids of the Palmiet (rafting for over 12’s only). The Palmiet is situated nearby the town of Kleinmond, just over an hour’s drive from Cape Town, along the scenic Clarence Drive.
