Cappanalea OEC is running a KES Active Schools Adventure Programme. The expedition will run over the October mid term break, from Monday 31st October until Thursday 3rd November 2011.
Invitations are being extended to all our KES schools and Centres seeking nominations to form a mixed group of young KES students. These students could be selected on an agreed criteria set by the school or centre, which could include; attendance; achievement; participation; possible benefits to those involved etc. Activities would very much focus upon teamwork and would build on the educational ethos of KES.
The group of ten or twelve students, aged 15 to 17 years old, would engage in a programme of sporting and cultural activity on a four day self contained wilderness expedition. Students along with two instructors from Cappanalea OEC, would pack and carry everything necessary for 3 nights camping and undertake projects and compile a journal as a means of recording the expedition.
The cost per student for the expedition is €195 pp.
