Horizon Courses for Schools

In our schools programmes, we undertake to balance fun and adventure with solid learning outcomes. In the new, residential environment, young people are more open to learning. Significant results can be achieved with guests who might find it difficult to embrace the classroom scenario.

Westport Adventure Centre

Westport is the Adventure Capital of Ireland with so much to see and do. We believe Westport to be one of the most suitable towns in Ireland from which to run our schools programmes and summer camps - and that's why we've based ourselves there.

Everyone at Horizon was very helpful, friendly and every effort was made to make the party feel welcome. The 24 hour supervision is just wonderful and would encourage teachers to take a group to this centre.
Pre-planned activities for evenings ensure students are kept busy and entertained. Overall we were very impressed with how pleasant and professional the instructors were, you were well prepared for us and it showed. Kids had a great time and so did we!!

The Horizon experience for both students and staff is fantastic with high quality activity supervision and instruction at all times. I highly recommend Horizon to any other school groups with the very comfortable accommodation arrangements making it a tremendous experience for all.
