Summer Camps Activities
Wild Kat Adventures brings you new and exciting challenges each day!
Forest day
Forest days will entail a variety of games and activities throughout the day that develops self-confidence, teamwork, resilience, determination, patience, humble winning, gracious losing. Children will work on their agility, stability and balance as they run through the forest on uneven ground, avoiding natural obstacles. We will build a shelter/fort allowing the children to be resourceful and creative while cooperating within a group. And what outdoor camp would be complete without building a fire and roasting marshmallows on it. Kids will learn how and where to safely build a fire, manage it and be sure it is completely out before leaving the site.

Biking Day
Biking day starts by splitting the children into ability groups so that the day can be adapted to the needs of the kids. The beginner and intermediate riders with work on improving their biking skills in a controlled environment, to enable kids to move into the forest in the afternoon and negotiate the natural paths and obstacles of the forest. The advanced riders will be challenged by an obstacle course, learning the importance of correct gearing, balance and steering.
Can’t ride a bike, no problem…We offer a biking master class course before camp starts to improve your child’s skills and confidence.
