About

MonLife Outdoor Education offers a broad range of outdoor activities in the SE Wales area. Most courses are residential of 3 to 5 days duration. Annually we deliver around 17,000 user days both residentially and as single day visits.

We can offer pupils a range of experiences of outdoor and environmental activities of increasing challenge throughout their school career, covering a spread of National Curriculum, A level /GCSE courses and personal and social development.

In addition to being located close to rivers, caves and mountains, the centres have many on site facilities including good standard accommodation, high ropes courses, indoor climbing and traversing wall, forest schools site, camping facilities, problem solving challenges and orienteering courses.

Course fees for young people from three of the four owning authorities are substantially subsidised providing excellent ‘value for money’. (Pupils entitled to Free School Meals are subsidised at a greater rate)
