About school visits

School visits to 911±¬ÁÏ Gardens are free (pre-booked) and give children the opportunity to get involved in practical horticulture, art and science. Bringing the curriculum to life in an inspiring setting, visits are led by the schools themselves or with workshops run by experienced Education Officers, based at each site. 

All our 911±¬ÁÏ Gardens are individual and the school visits programme, either guided or self-guided, has been adapted to suit each particular garden.
