School Activities | School Trips | Dorset | Adventure
Adventure activities for schools in Dorset are in no short supply! The hills and coastline of Swanage and the Jurassic Coast are home to Coasteering, Kayaking, Climbing and much, much more that make a school adventure activity day unforgettable! School trips often provide the most memorable moments of a student's time at school. Outdoor activities are key not only to those memories, but to the personal growth and development of life skills each and every young person walks away with!
We regularly work with small groups, coming down to Dorset for a week of Activities. New for 2023, we are launching something that we are truly excited about! We are taking things back to basics and bringing back the kind of ‘True Adventure Trips' that many of you probably remember. (With the added benefit of being more affordable, which is only going to become more and more important!)

We specialise in two very different types of School Residential programmes
The first, is the classic, week-long programme of scheduled activity, accommodated in camping accommodation, with a full catering package. These kinds of trips have become the norm in recent years, however despite their obvious benefits, they aren’t for everyone.
The other kind of trip we can offer is our absolute favourite! We are calling them our 'Back-to-Basics - True Adventure Trips'. These are exactly what they say on the tin! Basic camping, self reliance and adventure activities all mixed into the works! If the thought of those traditional Outdoor Education trips grabs your attention, click on the link below to find out what it's all about!
(we are very excited about these!)

FAQ's
Not to bad! We will provide you with a link to a folder on our cloud drive so that you can access any documents we share with you. There are only really three things we need from you:
- Provider Agreement
- Group Consent Form
- Medical Information
But we will be on hand to walk you through it all!
If you have any other questions please email Info@jurassicwatersports.co.ukor use the form on the bottom of this page, or on the 'Contact Us' page. Our Team will get back to you ASAP!
This doesn't happen often! (Until the last couple of years of course!) Our Team will discuss with you exact refund dates and deposits for your booking.
If the booking is unable to go ahead due to Government/Legal restrictions, we will discuss with you options for transferring the booking. If this is not possible, we will refund as much as possible, however on occasion we will need to keep small amounts of funds to cover unavoidable costs.
Not really! Just remember small groups can become more expensive! Due to staffing ratios, keeping groups close to multiples of 10 will usually be more cost effective!
Of course! We will provide you with a full kit list for you to pass onto your students.
We generally suggest 12-13+. Obviously we will adapt programmes to best suit the age of the group, for longer residential programmes, the older your students are, the more they will get out of the experience. For our new ‘True Adventure Trips’, we would suggest groups are aged 14+ (or Year 9+).
Depending on the Activities, we can be flexible. However we generally work around the Swanage/Purbeck area.
We can take groups as big as you’ve got. That being said, we find smaller groups have a better time! Groups of up to 30 can be accommodated without issue and groups of up to 60 can be accommodated with relative ease.
