We have many visitors throughout the year from the Police, Fire Brigade to dance and Yoga lessons and also hands-on wildlife experiences, ensuring that your child is exposed to all types of day to day activities.

We love seeing the reaction to these visits and opening the children’s minds to things they may not otherwise experience.
