We are passionate about the impact of outdoor learning on young people and about supporting young people to achieve their potential

The pictures are from Right to Left as this is how the crag is approached. The bouldering grades are in ‘Font’ grades. The text describes some of the harder bouldering problems. The coloured lines also show the grade.

End of term reward days

Although our activities have a massive amount of inherent learning, it is important to remember that they are extremely good FUN. This is why they also make a wonderful end-of-term reward day for both primary schools and secondary schools. 

Don’t just take our word for it…

100% of the profit generated by Bowles Learning & Development is donated to the Bowles Rocks Trust for the provision of educational programmes for young people

The ethics of Bowles also sat well with our core aims – we strive to be innovative leaders of change but with a sense of community responsibility and a desire to contribute in some way and with the charitable trust receiving all the profits from events like ours, we felt it was a small way in which we could make a difference. We had such an eventful programme that we are now planning future events with the team at Bowles!

Parent feedback, Framfield School

3 of my 4 daughters have had residential weeks at Bowles and the little one can’t wait. You give them an absolutely marvellous time – the week seems packed full of challenging activities, fun and adventure and each one has come home slightly changed by the experience – more confident, happy, settled and buzzing with tales of their experiences and team skills. Thank you. Merna

Reigate Priory Junior School

Thank you very much for providing, year on year, exemplary outdoor education. The culture of learning is unique in a beautiful and very well maintained setting. An excellent mix of safe and inspirational, life-changing risk taking with a sense of achievement and purpose.
