THE GOAL
Personal Growth through the Process of Discovery and Application
To facilitate this process, the Outdoor Education team at Capernwray Harbour will provide full programming and qualified instruction, making use of a variety of innovative facilities and equipment. One of our objectives is to assist any group of willing individuals to gain a hands-on understanding of what it takes to recognize unity and develop the harmony required of a working/functioning team.
The Capernwray Harbour programmes are based on discovery and application (Its “Hands ON experiential learning!”) and intended to inspire personal growth. We believe everyone has a lot to learn and a lot to offer. The mind, body and spirit will be challenged. Individuals will be encouraged to step out of their “comfort zone” (in a safe environment) and to engage in experiences that will impact perspective and lend to productive/beneficial responses in real-life contexts. Participants will have a tonne of fun learning new things, making friends and soaking up the natural beauty and peaceful surroundings of Capernwray Harbour.
Capernwray Harbour will work together with your group to customize every aspect of the programme, taking into consideration your specific dynamics, goals, and needs. Our programmes are built on timeless and relevant “life principles” focussing on community, teambuilding, communication, leadership, and problem-solving (amongst other things!). These life principles directly apply to every context in life one might find themselves in (family, school, the workplace etc.) and benefits are immeasurable.” There is something for everyone!!
