Cost

We have funding for London Schools through the Conservation Foundation, with 50% and 100% subsidies available. Please complete the booking form or contact us for details.

You may book a taster session but the full benefit of being in nature is gained through a sustained programme of one session per term. Progression of knowledge and understanding is built into this programme for each year group.
