What will students see and do?

Enjoy educational and engaging activities in London’s premium outdoor classroom. The environmental workshops are tied to the national curriculum and encourage an interactive, hands-on approach. Programmes focus on science, as well as geography, art and design, citizenship and literacy and are delivered at the Education Centre near Parliament Hill Fields.

Pupils can take part in question and answer sessions, role play presentations, completion of worksheets, navigating, a variety of games and pair-share opportunities.

How does the trip link to the curriculum?

Early Years pupils can go on a minibeast hunt, take part in a fun storytelling session, use materials to create art and explore the seasons.
