Join us for a day of festive family fun on our Elf School Day!

Have you got what it takes to become one of Santa’s elves? Learn the specific skills that Santa Claus looks for in his elves on this fun-filled day.

You will learn practical elf skills such as present stacking and climbing down chimneys, through to making Christmas decorations and how to care for Santa’s reindeer.

An important job for any of Santa’s elves is knowing how to navigate properly. Santa Claus manages to travel around the entire world in one night, so we have the perfect activity to test your navigation skills to see if they’re up to scratch.

At the end of the day, each child will receive their ‘Elf Graduation’ certificate around the campfire, and everyone will join in with some festive games full of Christmas magic!

The activities within this course are aimed at children ages 4 – 11 years old. See the full list of activities in the timetable below. If your child will be under the age of three on time of arrival, please select the ‘baby’ booking option so they can attend for free!
