Outdoor Ambassador Awards

This week has been a special one at our after school clubs as we celebrate the achievements of our young adventurers with the Outdoor Ambassador Awards! Every term, one or two members from each club are recognized for embodying the spirit of The Outdoors Project.

What is the Outdoor Ambassador Award?

The award is given for all sorts of wonderful reasons, from growing in confidence, being helpful, polite, particularly supportive to others, a team player and so on.

Our ambassadors represent the heart of what we do—bringing the outdoors to life through teamwork, respect, and play. The ambassadors go home with a special patch and a certificate, both of which are unique to this award and can only be given by an instructor.

There are so many positive things to say about all the members who attend our club and it is never easy for the club leaders to pick their ambassadors! We always praise our members efforts and achievments no matter how big or small. The award is simply that extra recognition from us for that individual for the term. 

The Award Ceremony

During a club towards the end of term we will make an effort to sit together as a group and announce the winners and the reasons they have won. It's all kept informal and we have fun with it! The school are also informed and occasionally they may chose to announce the award in class or in assembly.

Good luck and remember award or no award, you are valued by each and every member of the team equally. Being outside in the fresh air is rewarding for your mind, body & spirit, so technically you're already winning just by being there!
