At Kellands, we are always looking to provide high-quality outdoor learning interactions and experiences. As such, we have teamed up with our friends at Knockiehill Woodland Centre to provide a mega camping trip for our Primary 5 cohort.
Knockiehill Woodland Centre is set in 45 acres of ancient woodland on the edge of the stunning Cairngorm National Park, North East Scotland. Facilities at KWC are off grid, rustic and natural as possible. We work in symbiosis with our environment. We utilise solar energy for lighting and battery charging and have hot running water on demand.
The objectives of the camp:
To have fun!
To explore the woodland, understand the type of trees and the wildlife within the area.
To gain a sense of independence.
To participate in a number of outdoor woodland-based activities.
The camping trips will be for 2 days / 1 night on the following dates:
P5C - depart: Tuesday 3rd June // return: Wednesday 4th June
P5M - depart: Thursday 4th June // return: Friday 5th June
As with all trips, there is a cost. It is £105 per pupil. A suggested payment plan is below and details on how to pay have been emailed to all parents / carers.
You can see more about the Knockiehill Woodland Centre on their website and below.
If you should have any further questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch with the school via the office.
