If you are booking a full or self-guided education visit, you can confirm your visit by returning your confirmation slip.

This will be delivered with your topic CD which we will send you once you contact us.

Please arrive on time to make sure you get the most from your visit as we cannot rearrange session times.

Full education visits begin at the following times:

  • Session 1 - 10.15am
  • Session 2 - 11.15am
  • Session 3 - 12.15pm
  • Session 4 - 1.15pm.

Our education centre has two schoolrooms, allowing two talks to take place during each session.

Dates

Our education team is extremely busy in April, May and June so you should book early if you want to arrange a visit during these times.

The outreach service is also very popular and early booking is advised.
