Environmental Visits for Schools

Ecology Activities

The Ecology Centre provides a key facility for local schools to study and enjoy the natural environment, and can be booked for field trips and environmental education workshops throughout the year.

The centre, located in the stable yard of Holland House, is well resourced with a range of scientific equipment, reference materials, live and static specimens and other learning and teaching facilities.

Outdoor investigations take place in the Holland Park Wildlife Area, which features a superb wildlife pond with a dipping platform; woodland and grassland habitats. Visiting groups can work independently or with a member of staff.

We offer curriculum-linked lessons as well as creative cross-curricular and a Forest School programme. Popular sessions include habitats, plant studies, food chains and nature explorers.
