Are you a home educator interested in guided tours for your child?
Dive deeper into your child’s education of the natural world, whilst meeting other home educated students!
Our National Curriculum led tours will lead you through our aquarium with a tour guide and an exclusive fish feeding experience.
Each month we host one of our tours on a different subject to cater to a range of topics and learning levels.
These tours change on a rolling monthly basis. Our home educator tours take place on the last Wednesday of the month during term time. All tours start at 2pm and last for one hour.
