22/23 June 2008 Canoeing/rock climbing School Activity Week

 

Kushi Adventures provided us with a tailor made program over 2 days which was fun, challenging and exciting. They engaged well with our pupils and encouraged, without being intimidating. They met the needs of pupils with a wide range of abilities. They were both friendly and professional.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Kushi Adventures without a moments’ hesitation to anybody considering a program of outdoor activities for pupils.

What was good about the day?

The fact that the whole group got to do lots of different rock climbs in a variety of venues. Spirits were kept high with lots of good natured and humorous chat. The weather was mostly good, but Russell kept the group happy even when it was raining. The kids all said that Cummingston was their favourite crag. Routes chosen were perfect in terms of difficulty and line with some kids doing HS and HVS climbs in good style. Russell is very easy to work with and lets the group decide what they want to do. Safety is always a prime concern of his and the costs involved are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Kushi Adventures to any outdoor club or individual.

What was Bad??

Nothing really, sunshine on Saturday would have been nice but the group had fun anyway.

"A thoroughly good time was had by all. Adults and pupils gained a great deal from the day. "
Canoeing and Climbing with Elgin High School, May 2007.

 

"We really enjoyed our 3 day course; it was a great mix of learning and fun. We covered an awful lot of technical stuff in a short space of time and had plenty of opportunities to put our newfound knowledge into practice. I was particularly impressed by how well Russell coped with our differing levels of ability and our age range: keeping an 8 year old girl, her 10 year old brother and mother all on track must have been a real challenge!" .......Feedback from a sailing course in June 2006

 

Because we want to know how you feel, we give everyone we work with a Kushi evaluation form. So far everyone has said that they would use Kushi Adventures again.
