John Muir Awards

              John Muir Awards (Discovery, Explorer, Conserver). 

The John Muir Award is an environmental award scheme focused on wild places. It encourages awareness and responsibility for the natural environment, in a spirit of fun, adventure and exploration.

 

Cyfleon offer all 3 tiers of the award:

1. Discovery (Introductory)
2. Explorer (Intermediate)
3. Conserver (Advanced)

Completing the Award with Cyfleon will promote personal development, a fun and adventurous spirit, explore values and encourage personal responsibility for wild places.

Our programme can be tailored to include orienteering, mountain biking, hill walking, geo-caching and water sports for more adventurous groups. This programme can also be delivered as part of a residential/camp experience.

Four themes are at the heart of each John Muir Award:

ü  Discover a wild place.

ü  Explore its wildness.

ü  Conserve & take personal responsibility.

ü  Share your experiences.

 

Cyfleon use proven pedagogical approaches to improve learning and personal effectiveness in children.   We draw upon global best practice in learning outside of the classroom and outdoor education we are able to provide young people with holistic learning experiences that support the development of the ‘whole’ child.


We ensure there is an appropriate level of ‘scaffolding’ to ensure children & young people of all capabilities receive the right level of challenge to achieve.
