Spring piston air rifles can be difficult to cock and can also have issues with hold sensitivity. I love spring piston airguns and most of my airguns fall into that category, but if I were equipping a youth camp with air rifles I would not choose spring piston airguns for that application.
The Daisy 953 single pump pneumatic is a good option for your application but you may want to have some CO2 rifles on hand for those who can't handle even the minimal cocking effort of the 953. Perhaps something like the Crosman 2260.
