Non Residential Summer Adventure Course

Five-Day Programme | From £400 per student (dependent on experience)
Running weekly from Monday 29 June – Friday 21 August 2026

Imagine standing high above the Lake District valley, the wind on your face as you prepare to descend your first abseil. Later that day you might be paddling
across a peaceful lake in a kayak or climbing a rocky crag with expert guidance from the Windermere School Adventure Team.

Each day brings two exciting outdoor activities such as:

  • Abseiling
  • Rock climbing
  • Kayaking
  • Mountain adventures
  • Optional horse riding

All activities take place against the breath-taking backdrop of the Lake District, one of the UK’s most beautiful natural environments.

Throughout the week, you’ll join outdoor sessions alongside international students attending our Summer School.

This creates a unique opportunity to make friends from around the world, share new experiences, and develop teamwork and

communication skills in a truly global environment.

Designed for children aged 9–16, this action-packed programme helps young people:

  • Build confidence
  • Develop practical outdoor skills
  • Grow resilience and independence
  • Strengthen leadership and teamwork abilities
  • Create unforgettable memories
What’s Included

 This enriching adventure challenges students physically while supporting their personal growth—helping them return home more confident, capable, and inspired.
