| YHA Ilam Hall | Polite staff who let you look at the venue on a pre visit. Main issue is booking as you don't contact the venue you contact a central booking hub. They don't allow use of the classroom if the hall has a residential in, even if the residential aren't using the room. So you need to book well in advance to see if the room is available for when you want to go. | 19 October 2021 | |

| Fun2Fish | An excellent opportunity to develop practical skills in a safe, well equipped and calm setting. Bob the instructor had exactly the right temperament and combined with his expertise, the students had a really positive day. The site is clean, well thought out and all equipment was set up and ready prior to our arrival which meant the students were fishing within 10 mins of arrival. | 18 October 2021 | |

| Natural History Museum | We were met by a friendly NHM staff member who escorted us to the schools area where I was very impressed with the cleanliness in the picnic area and especially the toilets! The children were able to enhance their knowledge of classification and evolution as well as finding out more about earthquakes and volcanoes and dinosaurs. | 18 October 2021 | |
| Stubbers Adventure Centre | Y6 had an excellent day despite traffic delaying our arrival. The huts used for storing bags etc and toilets were clean and many of the resources are new following recent refurbishment.

| Queen Elizabeth Country Park | It was a great experience for the children, many of whom had never experienced the bug hunt activity in the woods. The other activities were okay but not as engaging for the children. The staff were very helpful and accommodating, and the facilities (use of the room in the visitor centre) was a big benefit to the trip. | 16 October 2021 | |

| Field Studies Council - Rhyd-y-creuau | Overall the centre was adequate and well eqipped. The location is excellent, and the tutor was certainly above average from what you coudl expect. There were issues. The organisation in the lead up to the visit was very last minute at thier end, the arrival was facilitated by a quite clueless member of staff, and there were times when the judgement of the field tutor from a H&S perspective were sub-optimal. | 15 October 2021 | |
