Our Multi Activity Course will give the children an opportunity to experience the majority of activities that Cobnor has to offer each day. This non-residential version of Summer Camps, is designed to give a unique experience that will teach new skills. The drop off time is for 09:30 and pick up is at 16:30 each day.
The programme may include a range of Sailing, Raft Building, Low Ropes, Team Building, as well as Canoeing, Climbing, Archery, Cycling Skills, Orienteering and Camp Craft and Shelter Building.
Children should bring a packed lunch each day as well as a full change of spare clothes and shows to get wet should water activities be programmed due to appropriate weather conditions.
Sailing Week for Beginners
Are your children keen to get on the water for a jam-packed week of sailing? Have they already taken part in the RYA syllabus and are seeking to improve their progress? Or, are they new to sailing and looking for a beginner week to commence their sailing journey?
Then come join us on our Sailing Weeks across Chichester Harbour, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)!
Our Sailing for Children courses offer everything to help them along their sailing progress. Our week courses offer an informal week of sailing, but we will aim to cover some of the RYA syllabus. If your children wish to log their progress, please ensure that they bring their log books along.
