We would like to invite all our students (7yrs & above) and families to an afternoon of fun & teamwork at The Prison Island in Maidstone.

  • Do you like a challenge?
  • Do you like working in a team?
  • Children – do you think you can beat the adults?
  • Who has both physical & mental skills?

Here is some information about the centre: Prison Island

You can enter as a team of 3 or 4 or if you are coming on your own we will put together a team for you.  Each team competes against one another to see who can solve the most challenges in an hour.  Parents, are you feeling brave enough to take on the children?

The plan for the day is:

  • Saturday, 20th July 2019

  • 4:00 – 5:00pm
  • Under 16yrs: £15.00

For those interested we would like to suggest going for some food after.  Please let us know if you are interested in eating after so that we can book a suitable restaurant.

To book your space(s):

  1. e-mail or speak to your Instructor in class
  2. we will only confirm your space(s) once you have paid in full
  3. arrange your own team or let us know if you would like us to sort this
  4. give yourself a team name (if applicable)
