Workshop content

Make rocks fun with a visit to our geology field station and trailer ride around a working quarry site. Learn about the formation of rocks and fossils. Work scientifically to compare and group together different kinds of rocks by appearance and physical properties. See where sand and gravel is removed from the ground and how it is processed.

Watch our video of schools' visits at Wood Lane Nature Reserve and see just how much fun and benefit the children get from getting their hands dirty outdoors.

So, contact our Education and Learning Team for more information about how we can help make your workshop an experience the class will remember.
