Being an Activity Leader
Working with kids requires energy, confidence and effort; but we guarantee it’s never, ever boring.
You could be running activity sessions, lighting campfires, taking groups for meals, building shelters, checking equipment, telling daft jokes, comforting a home-sick guest or lending a helping hand to your hospitality colleagues. No two days will ever be the same.
It’s busy work, but it’s never boring!
