There are few places that are as easy as Usk Castle for schools to visit. In a town with a thriving rural life museum and a rich history dating back to pre-Roman times, a whole day can be arranged to cover many aspects of curricular topics.

The castle is fun for children of all ages to visit, have a picnic and do different activities. For the price of a small donation to the castle charity, hours of entertainment are at hand – no formal material is provided as each group will have their own topics and activities to explore, but there are a few suggestions below. Toilets are available for booked visits.
