During a full day ranger led visit, you can mix ranger and teacher led sessions at Dinton Pastures Country park. We also encourage teachers to lead their own visits to the park. School groups are welcome to use Dinton Pastures without any involvement from us. You can hire equipment, borrow resources and hire a room. Please let us know in advance if you plan to visit one of our sites, so that we can record the numbers of students using the site. It will also prevent problems over double booking. See our teacher-led activites list, below.
Play area on site
There is a play area with plenty of room for picnics and sports.
