Our Passion for Outdoor Learning and  Nature Awareness

Muddy Dragon Survival School is an outdoor activitiy project designed to help children and families connect with nature, build confidence, and develop practical skills through hands-on experience.

Sessions focus on bushcraft, woodland skills, teamwork, and exploration, encouraging curiosity, resilience, and problem-solving in a safe and supportive outdoor environment. Activities may include shelter building, fire lighting, tool awareness, nature identification, and simple camp skills, all adapted to suit the age and ability of the group.

Muddy Dragon sessions are family-based, with parents or carers attending and participating alongside their children. This shared approach encourages participation together, builds confidence, and helps create a relaxed and inclusive atmosphere.

Muddy Dragon Survival School also works with local schools, community groups, and other organisations to deliver outdoor activity sessions tailored to different age groups and settings. These sessions are developed collaboratively to ensure they are appropriate, engaging, and aligned with safety and safeguarding expectations.

All sessions are led by an experienced outdoor practitioner, with a strong focus on safety, safeguarding, and enjoyment. Activities are risk-assessed, age-appropriate, and designed to be challenging in a positive and controlled way.

Group sizes vary depending on the size of each family booking onto a session. Sessions can accommodate up to 8 families, and smaller, single-family sessions can also be arranged by request. Please get in touch if this is something you’re interested in.

Muddy Dragon Survival School operates alongside Elemental Escapes, a sister project offering guided outdoor experiences for adults and older participants. While the two projects are separate, they share the same practical, safety-focused approach to outdoor activity and respect for the natural environment.

Muddy Dragon Survival School is about getting muddy, learning by doing, and having proper outdoor fun.
