These range from classic 45 minute/1 hour round trips to half or full day events linked into key topics within the curriculum. Preferably trips should be planned some time in advance to ensure that the specified intended learning outcomes can be sufficiently and innovatively designed into the event, and that we have the boats available.
“Everyone had a great time, we will look at making this an annual trip” Cub Group
“Thank you for a lovely trip – The children loved seeing all the wildlife and the experience of being on the boat was fantastic. Hopefully we will continue with our water topic in future years and so will be making return visits!” CG, School Teacher – Cambridge
Please note, to access ‘Rosie’ the narrowboat requires use of three steps down into the cabin. However our Eco-Solar Electric boat ‘Princess Charlotte’ has a flat deck with easy access, with the approach from the shore to the boat via a wheelchair ramp. Full Risk Assessment and Insurance documents available on request. Contact us with your requirements
For an in-depth educational we are also able to offer boat-handling training. This can be available for anyone 14 or older. Contact us for details. Individual learner plans can be created covering both ‘crew’ and ‘helmsman’ syllabus content. Over time this can led to obtaining the full RYA Inland Waterway Certificate.
