“The trip was fantastic and very well organised. Elizabeth was an excellent lead and the children loved to listen to her: she captivated their interest right from the start. There were lots of hands on learning that keep children engaged and active in the learning. The centre had lots of great resources which children loved to explore. The centre itself was very well kept and the activity room is perfect for small groups.”
