Schools & Groups
Schools
School parties have been visiting MESC for over 20 years, taking part in our popular curriculum based activities, designed for children of all ages. From pond dipping to tree trails, mini-beast hunts to wild art, our activities are all hands-on, giving children and young people that fantastic connection to nature. We also offer Forest School based activities, including den building, which are ideal for team working and co-operation skills.
Our highly experienced Education Officer is also available to visit your school and deliver an Eco Day including topics on recycling, energy, water and caring for the environment.

"School is so much more fun when our lessons are out doors and I loved the pond dipping. I've never seen such amazing creatures"
Youth Groups, Clubs & Socities
We are also delighted to welcome groups with a wide variety of interests to enjoy everything that we have to offer. From playgroups and uniformed organisations such as Scouts, Brownies and Beavers to Hobby Clubs and Societies, we have activities to suit all.
And for those who enjoy things a little bit more technical, visits can include a tour of the BT Satellite Station, depending on availability and weather conditions.
