Join us for a taster session at Greenwich Park to find out what Field Studies Council can offer and experience the learning location first hand.

During the two hour session, we will introduce you to the courses available for your classes and let you know about funded opportunities with Greenwich Park Revealed and how to book these. After a tour of the classrooms and areas of the park that are used, one of our tutors will take you through an example activity.

The sessions are funded as part of the Greewich Park Revealed Project
