Adventure Course

“life is an adventure or nothing”

The fifteen-day adventure course is designed on the same pattern as outward-bound courses abroad. It is primarily for teenage boys and girls. However, adults are also permitted in special adventure courses. The course provides a stimulating experience of physical outdoor pursuits such as trekking, camping, rock crafts and water sports. The course is designed to instil a sense of comradeship, discipline, selflessness and concern for environmental protection.
