Make a Booking

All groups must book in advance to ensure availability of teaching sessions. Please book provisionally by telephone then return the attached booking form to confirm your visit and programme. (Teachers and other adult supervisors come with their groups free of charge).
 
 
Opening Times and Facilities
The Centre is open from 9am - 5pm, Monday to Friday. We recommend teachers arrange a preliminary visit to meet the staff and familiarise themselves with the centre and its facilities. Please telephone to arrange your visit.  The centre has all access toilet facilities. Tea and coffee are provided free for visiting staff. A tuck shop is available for use by schools. Alternatively, a goodie bag can be made up prior to your arrival - please detail on booking form.
 
“The Eco Lunch”
Please help your children learn about helping the environment by preparing an environmentally friendly lunch for their visit to our centre. Use as little packaging as possible and materials that can be recycled. Eat locally produced products to conserve fossil fuel resources. Avoid using cling film, drinks cartons, pre-wrapped biscuits and non-recyclable packaging.  After your lunch we will weigh your waste at the centre - can you be the school that leaves the least amount of rubbish for landfill?
