A Letter from our President

Dear students, parents, sponsors and members,

An awful lot has already been said and written about 2020, and you will be relieved to hear that I do not propose to add to it. I simply hope that the end of the year finds you all safe and healthy.

At Outward Bound Monaco, we are already looking forward to 2021. The UK centres are planning to re-open for residential courses in 2021, and we are taking bookings for courses in July and August 2021. Details of the dates and prices are on our website right below this newsletter. No deposit payment is required.

Please contact vanessa@outwardboundmonaco.com if you have any queries or would like to book a course.

We believe that every young person who wants to take part in an Outward Bound course should have the opportunity to do so. Therefore, we aim to ensure that financial assistance is available to every young person who needs it. Details of how to apply for financial assistance are on our website.

I hope to see you all again next year and, in the meantime, I wish you all a happy Christmas and a healthy and more normal year in 2021.

With best wishes,

Sarah O’Connor

President

Outward Bound participants together again for awards

By Ian Brodie December 19, 2019 https://monacodailynews.com

On Tuesday 17 December, 30 students from the Cote d’Azur who participated this summer in Outward Bound programmes in Ullswater (the English Lake District) and Aberdovey (North Wales) were reunited for the prestigious Outward Bound Monaco annual awards ceremony in the beautiful location of the Yacht Club de Monaco.

Surrounded by friends, patrons and members of Outward Bound Monaco and their parents, the proud students received their diplomas from the Patron of Outward Bound Monaco, HSH Prince Albert, who praised their courage and resourcefulness in the face of the challenges that an Outward Bound programme offers.

Sarah O’Connor, President of Outward Bound Monaco commented: “The positive effect which Outward Bound can have on the development of young people’s lives is clear in the testimonies we hear from the students at our Awards evening. I thank all our supporters and helpers who make this possible, and also our patron H.S.H. Prince Albert of Monaco for yet again finding the time to meet them and present their certificates”.
