It had a 'treasure hunt' feel which engaged children and kept them focused. | 28 January 2022 | |

| The Living Rainforest | Very interactive for the children and they were able to learn lots about adaptations through the workshop they took part in. The staff members were very helpful and informative. The area where we were able to keep our belongings and have lunch was central to the rainforest meaning we could easily access our belongings when required. | 28 January 2022 | |
| Butser Ancient Farm | We enjoyed our trip to Butser Ancient Farm. It was very well planned and organised. We were offered a choice of activities to chose from in advance and we were invited to visit the farm before the trip took place to carry out the risk assessment. Children were captivated by the interesting stories from the fact and were happy to excavate to find the evidence and the proof of existence for Stone Age People. | 27 January 2022 | |

| NST Travel Group | A very time-intensive trip leader experience with poor service. Fortunately we have run a high number of similar trips before so I knew what had not been considered, but on every email sent I received an email to give me an agent’s working hours, stating they were only available two days a week. Lots of extra work created to book the experience as we wanted and incorrect assumptions made by the agent. A device sent out to use whilst away, which was dated, not easy to operate without reading a lot of information and added an additional task to post the device back. Poor scheduling on the Saturday with insufficient time for lunch. Poor communication with the coach company who did not have the capacity to fulfil their role fully as we needed. We switched to NST due to their Covid promise but probably won’t use again. | 17 January 2022 | |
