The Outdoors Project

These aren’t ordinary holiday clubs. Every day is designed to inspire movement, imagination and confidence through hands-on activities set entirely outdoors. From bushcraft and den building to wide games, creative challenges and team missions, children are constantly engaged in experiences that feel like true adventure.

We create a safe, supportive and energetic environment where children can take healthy risks, try new things and build independence. Our experienced staff encourage teamwork, creativity and resilience — all while ensuring children are having enormous fun. There’s no screen time, no stuffy halls and no repetitive schedules — just active days packed with meaningful outdoor experiences.

Children might spend one day as woodland explorers building shelters and learning survival skills, and the next on a mythical quest crafting shields and completing team challenges. From Nature Ninja missions and wide-area capture-the-flag games to creative woodland crafts and problem-solving adventures, our themes are woven through the entire day.

This variety keeps children engaged across multiple bookings — whether they attend for a single day or a full week. It also means there’s something for every personality type: energetic movers, creative thinkers, quiet builders and natural leaders all find moments to shine.

Parents often tell us their children come home not only tired and happy, but more confident, more independent and full of stories from the day’s adventures.

At Southover School in Lewes, we use a huge green playing field tucked away in a quiet, idyllic location. The setting feels peaceful and spacious, yet remains conveniently located for families. The wide-open space allows for large group games, team challenges and active play in a safe and inspiring environment.

Both sites offer something truly special — real outdoor space, fresh air and freedom to explore.
