Home EdVenture 28th July - The Edge Adventure

Intro

This is for home educated children and their parents who are keen to get outdoors & share activities with like-minded people.

We will be offering team building & bonding activities to help build connections, make new friends and learn new skills.

Why?

The school system is clearly not working for many & been locked up indoors all day just isn't healthy.  Online connections have started to replace in-person connections and social anxiety is becoming a blocker for many people.

We are hoping this will help children to make new friends, spend time in nature & enjoy learning through fun and experiential activities. 

We also hope to provide parents the space to connect with others and also get involved with the activities. 

Please note - this is not a drop-off service, we need parents to support & remain responsible for their children's behaviour and basic safety on site, while bonding with the group.  We will run the events with safety briefings.

Tea, coffee & squash included.

Free time & open space to play.
