Outdoor adventures
A curriculum that helps kids discover a love of the great outdoors.
Our mission
To teach outdoor education and to promote and fund conservation of wildlife worldwide
The Outdoor Adventures curriculum is not your traditional PE course
Instead of teaching PE with balls and rackets, we use rods and reels, and bows and arrows. The Outdoor Adventures course is designed to change young people’s lives forever by teaching them a myriad of outdoor recreation skills, as well as the principles of wildlife conservation.
Outdoor Adventures (OA) is a fun and exciting physical education course, elective, or agricultural science class. Students are taught lifelong skills through an accredited curriculum that integrates outdoor recreation and conservation with science, math, writing, critical thinking skills, and computer technology.
