Audley End Miniature Railway Essex

What makes us a great choice for education?

We believe in the importance of creating a learning environment, outside, in the beautiful British countryside. All of our educational modules cover a range of cross curricular subject areas, as we agree with you on the importance of linking the arts and humanities with science and maths to equip our little learners for a bright future.

What is typically included on our school trips?

We have developed a range of educational modules aimed at children in Foundation Stage and Key stage 1. The modules are cross-curricular with a focus on Science, Engineering, Arts and Maths. During the day, all children will have a chance to ride on one of our fantastic Trains, spend time exploring our new adventure playground, spend time in one of our new outdoor classrooms and consolidate their learning with module-linked activities on the Fairy and Elf Walk.

Group Sizes Catered For

We can accommodate a class of up to 30-32 children in one time slot. If you have a class that is larger than that, we can split them into two separate time slots and two separate class rooms.

Materials, Resources & Information Provided

We will provide you with digital copies of all module worksheets and information packs for you to print prior to your visit. On the day, we will also provide you with the template for creating the Tunnel Book and pens, pencils, glue and scissors and any other non-printable resources needed for the modules.

Photography, Filming & Audio Restrictions

No restrictions, please feel free to take photographs or film.

Risk Assessment Details

To aid in the planning and preparation of your day, we will provide you with our risk assessment information. We hope that this complements any further risk assessment procedures you may require for your visit and we welcome any teachers wishing to undertake a pre-visit.
