The South Downs Experience

A unique experience for year 6 pupils based at Wetherdown Hostel. Topics covered include habitats, nature conservation, farming and the iron age and all are related to the South Downs. There are many opportunities to cover areas of the national curriculum and this exciting package includes three day trips to other local educational sites. Pupils will visit Butser Ancient farm, Queen Elizabeth Country Park and will go on safari to a local farm.

“Each day proved to be very different The structure of the week certainly catered for the wide range of interests that primary age children have. I can’t praise Janet and her team highly enough for their care and attention to detail. We had a thoroughly enjoyable and worthwhile week and have already booked for 2007” - quote from a 2006 school group

Come and learn about changes to the South Downs past, present and future.
