School Groups

Moira Lakes is a great choice for schools looking for a safe, organised and genuinely memorable day out for pupils.

We regularly work with schools, Scouts, Guides, Boys’ Brigade, church groups, youth organisations and sports teams from across Northern Ireland. Whether you’re planning an end-of-term trip, reward day, activity afternoon, transition event or part of a residential programme, we can tailor activities to suit your group, age range and budget.

Located just 5 minutes from the M1 motorway, our private site provides a controlled environment with qualified instructors, structured activity sessions and full safety briefings throughout the day.

All staff working with young people are safeguarding trained, Access NI checked and experienced in delivering activities for children and young people in an outdoor setting.

Activities can include paddleboarding, kayaking, archery, laser tag, team building challenges and more, with options available for both small and large groups.

A Typical Adventure Visit

A standard visit usually runs between 1-3 hours and can include:

Paddleboarding or kayaking on the lake
Archery sessions
Laser Tag outdoors
Axe Throwing (age dependent)
Team challenges and problem-solving games

All activities are instructor-led and include safety equipment, a full briefing and structured games – not just free time on the water.

For larger groups we can rotate activities in stations to keep everyone active and minimise downtime.

Flexible Packages

We don’t believe in rigid packages that don’t suit your group. Instead, we build sessions around:

Age range
Group size
Budget
Time available
Ability level

That said, here are a few popular options to give you an idea.

Pizza and Paddle

A relaxed and fun option that works brilliantly for youth groups.

Includes:

1 hour instructor-led paddleboarding or kayaking
Half 12" freshly made pizza per person

This works well as an evening reward session or end-of-term treat.
