Meet Andy Holden, our Education Officer at Active Hestercombe!
"Education is about so much more than what you learn in the classroom. You should be able to see, touch, hear and smell your subject! Hestercombe provides an ideal venue for this truly immersive, experiential form of learning. I love that moment when all of a sudden you see the light go on and a child 'gets it'."
