Good facilities and the instructors were great with the children. THe centre offers a range of activities for groups to choose from. (April 2022 - Primary School)

Great staff and well organised, appropriate and challenging activities. The centre itself is fabulous. Plenty of space for all attendees. (March 2022 - Primary School)

An excellent visit was had by the children and staff. All the staff were friendly, supportive and professional around the children, they briefed the children on site safety, expectations and covid-19 procedures, and challenged them to take part in an encouraging manner. There were one way systems in place for covid-19, lots of hand sanitiser stations around the site and tables were cleaned between each school in the dinner hall. A fire drill was carried out in order for the children to know what to do in case of an actual alarm and all safety expectations for activities were outlined in a child friendly manner. The dormitory doors to outside were able to be alarmed at night and children knew location of staff at night if necessary. Supporting visit staff and centre staff were aware of any medical/pastoral needs and a useful introductory briefing given to all visiting staff by lead instructor. (March 2022 - Primary School)

Excellent resources and the staff were always on hand where needed. They were very knowledgeable and the children got a lot out of the residential. (November 2021 - Primary School)

(October 2021 - Primary School)

We had an amazing few days at Laches Wood, most of the instructors really took time to understand our children and adapted their teaching techniques accordingly. It was a shame the children didn't do their jobs more frequently as we had done at Shugborough the previous year, and in future we would like the children to gather in their groups outside the dinner hall and go in as groups and stay seated until everyone has finished and then clear away. This happened at our last residential and we presumed this would be the same. We never made it clear that was what we wanted but will do next time. The accommodation was great apart from the fact that it was rather too warm. Especially the staff rooms that had no opening windows as the velux windows weren't working. A small price to pay for the memories made and self belief developed. One little boy who we only convinced on the day of the trip came for the first day, but didn't want to take part. Your instructor on the high ropes was simply awesome with him. By the end of the day he was at the top of the tower helping everyone and he came back the second day and stayed the night. The little boy has visibly grown in pride and confidence, thank you. (September 2021 - Primary School)
