As a follow up to our rock climbing courses, we have created this post to remind people of some of the skills taught on the course.
We run fantastic activities during the school holidays, all staffed by experienced, qualified instructors. Archery, bushcraft, skiing, ropes courses, rock climbing, watersports and multi-activity 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.
Our In-School Team will arrive at your school in the morning and run a range of team building activities. This can be done on a sports field or even in a large indoor area. Your Bowles instructor will coordinate the…

Pinnacle has a very well established relationship with the Bowles Rocks Trust. I enjoy taking groups of Managers and their teams along to their lovely facility on a regular basis; often these groups are very diverse and have not necessarily worked together before, but the integration process we go through is extremely effective.

10/10 for educational value, with particular reference to the use of growth mindsets, plus the best food I have ever had in all my years of organising residential trips.
The site at Bowles provides an ideal location for our apprentices to investigate inter-personal skills they might not before have considered. We are looked after well with comfortable accommodation, great food and a knowledgeable tutor staff
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.
