School and student groups

Everyone loves dressing up

Recording the event the old-fashioned way

 

The Teign Heritage Centre offers an education service to groups of all ages. Although we are closed to the general public from 30th November until 1st March 2012, we are open for group bookings.

The Heritage Centre has been designed to appeal to children, with many hand-on objects and interactives, and to support the National Curriculum.

‘We were greeted and looked after so warmly… the colourful work-cards helped them to look much more closely at the exhibits and the interactives were very popular. Very many thanks for putting so much thought and work into our visit and for giving children a lot of educational fun.’

We can cater for:

  • early years settings and pre-schools
  • primary school groups
