We're pleased to share our availability for dates up to December 2023. Bookings can be made in the normal way, by clicking the button below.
In addition to site visits, we can offer the following activities:
- Outreach visits to schools delivering our usual workshops and presentations. We are taking bookings for one class taking part in our full day programme, or 2 classes each receiving a half day programme (one class in the morning, another class in the afternoon).
- For schools who prefer a virtual experience, we can deliver a live 'virtual workshop' via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Webex or GoToMeet.
- For Key Stage 4, we have a 'virtual careers presentation' which can be delivered in the same way.
- We have a suite of online lessons accessed through our YouTube channel, see our Online lessons page for more information.
- We are offering a series of virtual assemblies each term, including sessions on water safety, the countryside code and live Q&A's with our clean and waste water operators!
All our Education Centre visits are offered free of charge - you only need to pay and arrange your own transport.
