Outing Highlights
A skatepark repurposed into an activity arena
The session turns the skatepark into a supervised activity space where instructors lead a range of non-wheeled games and challenges, giving familiar concrete a new purpose.
Rotations of games and skill stations
Participants try a variety of short activities drawn from the operator’s programme—examples include slacklining, sucker archery, curling, obstacle courses, parachute games and team challenges.
Short, supervised session ideal for drop-off
Sessions are supervised so parents may drop children off and collect them at the end; the operator runs concurrent sessions for different age groups.
What the day feels like
What the session feels like
Packed into 90 minutes, the Shake Up session moves quickly: a welcome and briefing, then rotations through short, contained activities led by instructors. The focus is playful, cooperative and varied—one moment balancing on a slackline, the next launching soft arrows or negotiating a mini obstacle course—emphasising fun and participation rather than technical progression.
