Education
A Unique Location
Teaching Sessions are delivered by expert Gardens’ staff and all link to the National Curriculum. Teaching sessions take place in our dedicated classrooms, but also public spaces including outside in the Gardens or within our Glasshouses. We venture out into the Gardens come rain or shine, so please ensure that everyone is appropriately dressed for all eventualities!
Teaching
Teaching Session Options
We offer a wide range of expertly-taught, cross-curricular teaching sessions to choose from. Have your students study our tropical seeds, food products and tribal artefacts to learn about the fascinating rainforest environment; have them become detectives and solve clues that lead to some of our most interesting and astounding plants; have them learn about and handle our unique and exotic animal collection, just to name a few. Teaching sessions link directly to the National Curriculum and can be tailored to fit any topic.
Minimum Charge — in order to cover our costs as an Educational Charity, a minimum charge will be levied for groups with fewer than 15 children (August – January) or 20 children (February – July).
