Are you coming to Pendarren?!

Learning outside the classroom is great fun – it gives you a chance to experience things for real instead of watching it on your TV, phone, iPod, iPad, Xbox or PlayStation. When you visit us you will be faced with new and exciting situations and challenges, and as you travel on your personal journey at Pendarren you will face these challenges in a team to support you. The downside is you might get wet, or muddy!!

We promise when you go back home you will be exhilarated, inspired and have the confidence to do more of the real challenges you’ll experience while in our care.

If it’s your first time away from home, the experience is probably exciting, nerve-wracking and a little bit scary! But we aim to make it lots of fun. The boys and girls have separate dormitories with bunk beds.
