Acorn Academy

Professor Bramble pushes a beautiful gypsy cart, which Head Mistresse Miss Nutella Nutkins, uses as her mobile class room. They are on a field trip, collecting new objects from the natural world for their show and tell collection. Prospective students for the Acorn Academy are auditioned in impromptu classes, allowing the children to discover and learn about the wonders of Natural History, as they handle real fossils, minerals and other materials.

We had a fantastic day and you were brilliant - and fitted perfectly into the theme of the day and the audience we had - you were loved by all.
We had approx 2,500 visitors that day - over twice my max estimate - but the building coped...and you helped us a great deal in our work to manage visitors, by being flexible about where we sent you in the building for each set - it helped to to give all our visitors a good quality experience and helped to keep us all safe and within regs."
