Reviews from Schools..
★★★★★
"We took part in the Polar Regions VR workshops in Early November this year. The children were so engaged in the experience, enjoyed seeing different animals and learning interesting facts about them. The workshops gave the children such a valuable experience and a greater understanding of the areas they are currently studying. It was a fantastic activity for them to take part in! Andy, who ran our workshop, did a great job in getting the pupils excited about our new topic. Thank you! "
