(June 2022 - Secondary School)
Pupils enjoyed the visit and the activities that were provided. There were however some concerns raised by staff in terms of H&S. 1. There wasn't a member of staff on site overnight that was responsible for the security of the site and locking doors etc. 2. Fingerguards were not placed on internal doors. Whilst we understand that there isn't a legal requirement for them to be for children above 7 they are such a simple addition that can avoid nasty accidents. One of our pupils had a nasty accident which led to amputation and re attachment of the top of his index finger. 3. Access to key equipment such as landline phone, first aid kit and defibrillator was restricted (in a locked building after 9:30pm). 4. There was no fire drill when the staff arrived or for the duration of the stay.

We had to cancel our visit but the centre were excellent with their communication throughout the booking process. We will be looking to return in March/April 2022. (November 2021 - Secondary School)
This is a fantastic centre with excellent facilities. The instructors are knowledgeable and decisive with the activities and children. The food was also excellent. As a Christian school we appreciated the Christian links and would like more of these in future. The staff were friendly and helpful. (October 2021 - Primary School)
