Outdoor Learning
For schools & youth organisations
HBA Outdoors can provide a range of activities to inspire participants to learn more about the natural world and appreciate its wonders. These can take place in school playgrounds or, even better, in a local woodland.
Sessions can be a one-off visit or part of a regular programme. There are multiple awards such as the John Muir Award, Scottish Junior Forester Award and RSPB Wild Challenge Award that can be achieved through regular sessions.
There's no limit to group size but your regular ratios should still be maintained. Any number of groups can be accommodated within the half/full day but a minimum of 1 hour per group is recommended.
