Royal Highland Show
21st - 24th June 2012
The Royal Highland Education Trust (RHET) Children's Discovery Centre is based in Avenue Q of the showground.
The centre is run by the Royal Highland Education Trust (RHET) and open to anyone and everyone, offering a range of fun, interactive and hands-on activities for children of all ages.
The Centre is open to school parties (in addition to the public) on Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd June 2012.
The RHET education programme is available to booked school and nursery groups, and offers:
- Bookable education programme sessions
- Interactive learning
- Educational drop-in activities
- Guided tours
- Curriculum-linked education packs
On arrival at the show, booked school groups are greeted by RHET staff and volunteers, who will ensure you find where you need to be as quickly as possible.
Groups have the option of a guided tour of the showground with one of our RHET volunteers and learn all about the different attractions, or head straight to the RHET Children's Discovery Centre to get stuck-in to your chosen activities. Our tours can be tailored to meet your specific needs, however there is no obligation to participate in RHET activities should groups wish to enter as a school party and follow their own programme.
RHET staff and volunteers are on hand to guide and assist with activities, and RHET are extremely grateful to their dedicated team of volunteers and activity providers who give up their time for education at the Royal Highland Show. Their expertise and enthusiasm is gladly shared with the children who visit the Dobbies Children's Discovery Centre, either as members of the public or in a school party.
