Possibilities for team building and company excursions

Seal trips

Spot seals in het wild en maak een wandeling over een zandplaat terwijl onze gids je meer vertelt over dit bijzondere UNESCO Werelderfgoed, of neem deel aan een zeehondenvrijlating.

Workshop Rope & Knots 

Rope & Knots is a workshop in which participants experience how teamwork functions and what contribution each team member makes to this collaboration. The activity begins with an interactive introduction to the history of knots, followed by an explanation of the many relationships between knots and collaboration.

Specific attention can be given to themes such as leadership, decision-making or quality assurance. In addition, the workshop can be expanded to include the Belbin team role test.

Creatief met Jutvondsten

Tijdens deze workshop ga je aan de slag met hergebruikt strandafval. Jutvondsten vormen de grondstof voor een creatieve activiteit waarin circulair denken centraal staat. Afval krijgt een nieuw leven: materialen worden opnieuw ingezet en het verhaal van jutvondsten wordt herschreven. Het is mogelijk om individueel te werken of samen een object te ontwikkelen.

Onder begeleiding van Surya van Loon – Studio Tut maak je kennis met diverse technieken, variërend van stempelen tot mozaïek. Door middel van creatieve oefeningen wordt samenwerking gestimuleerd en ontstaat er een proces waarin experiment en verbeelding centraal staat.
