Adventure First works within the principles and purpose of Curriculum for Excellence with every educational group.  The purpose of Curriculum for Excellence is encapsulated in the four capacities - to enable each child or young person to be a successful learner, a confident individual, a responsible citizen and an effective contributor.
 
Outdoor activities generates success in all four areas.  Our staff encourage healthy physical activity, build physical competences and improve aspects of fitness.  By participating in outdoor activities pupils will develop personal and interpersonal skills and attributes, as well as enhancing their overall health and wellbeing in preparation for leading a fulfilling and active lifestyle.
