Education at Borde Hill

We are pleased to offer educational projects for schools for various aspects of the  curriculum. Each project is based closely on the requirements of the National Curriculum, and provides a stimulating and inspirational learning experience in this magnificent Garden.

Also available is a family tree trail, focussing on the champion trees and plant collectors who played such an important part in the development of the Garden.

If you plan to bring a school group please download the relevant Teacher Information sheet (PDF format) from this page and then register using our group booking form and we can then email you the student activity sheets.
