We can provide many of our educational activities / Workshops / Telescope Tour / Science Show etc. to pre-booked home educator groups if there are a minimum of 15 children in the group.

These activities are designed for specific ages / key stages and are best when delivered to children of a similar age. If your group comprises a mixture of ages / key stages we may not be able to offer all activities, but we will do our best to adjust by prior arrangement.

Cost:
£5.75 per adult
£5.75 child (aged 4 +)

Additional activities (subject to availability) carry an extra cost per child. e.g. Telescope Tour  + £1 per child.

Please note there is a minimum charge of £20 for a Telescope Tour / Science Show.
