Outdoor Education at School contains sets of practical activities and problem-solving lessons for primary school students. Designed to be done completely within the school grounds and with minimal amount of equipment, these lessons and activities will appeal to the teacher who has little experience in outdoor education and will act as a valuable resource to the experts in the field.

The contents are based not only on learning in the outdoors but on learning about and for the outdoors. Specific topics covered include: - Environmental studies
- Initiative games
- Navigation
- Bushcraft
- Mapping
Students will enjoy the variety of topics covered while learning skills in personal development, self-esteem, resourcefulness, independence, leadership and cooperation. The lessons are not organised in grade levels but in developmental progression from simple and introductory to complex.
