Our aim at Belvoir Castle is that school visits should develop the children's sense of identity through learning about the history of the Castle during Regency and Victorian times.

Our Schoolroom and Nursery are well equipped and children have the opportunity to experience a lesson in the atmosphere of a Regency Schoolroom with a firm governess in charge! In the kitchen the children will learn about different methods of preparing and cooking food from Regency and Victorian times, and also see the housekeeper prepare potions and lotions for various purposes.

Children will have the opportunity to appreciate the grandeur of the Castle under the supervision of a well informed guide. Most guides are in costume and their intention is that children have a fun day of learning.

The extensive gardens, woodlands and adventure playground are perfect for outdoor activities and games.

We follow the learning objectives according to the National Curriculum and target several units from Key Stages 1, 2 and 3. It is advisable to book early as we so many schools visit us and we approach each school with a specially tailored tour.
