The Thames Learning Group has been launched to provide an easy to use resource for schools and adult learners looking to access the River Thames and its surrounds.
 
The group involves organisations along the River Thames, such as the Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, the National Trust and RSPB.

Group topics range from learning outside the classroom for schools through to bird watching, river ecology and the history and heritage of the Thames. Schools, colleges, community groups and individuals in Henley can now use the Partnership to provide learning opportunities tailored to them and plan trips along the river.
 
Paul Mainds, Co-Chair, The Thames Learning Partnership and Chief Executive of the River & Rowing Museum, Henley on Thames said: "For schools the Thames provides the opportunity to bring subjects to life outside of the classroom, while adult learners benefit from the unique environment and heritage that the Thames provides."

"The new Group simplifies getting access to the benefits of the river – from Palaces to Piers, Castles to Cormorants, there is something for everyone!"
