Self-led (teacher-led) visits to our sites are free, but must be booked in advance.

Please note that outreach sessions delivered beyond the Wakefield district will incur a small additional mileage charge.

Please be aware that there are no dedicated indoor lunch spaces at our venues.

You may be able to book one of our learning spaces to eat packed lunches, depending on availability.
