I had the chance to visit and fully experience the Creekside Discovery Centre near the start of the academic year long primary teacher Postgraduate Certificate in Education programme at Goldsmiths College in 2011. Would highly recommend it to other teachers as a fantastic opportunity for a very unique outdoor learning experience.

I attended this week as part of a Year 5 trip. It was EXCELLENT. The children (as well as myself) felt it was the best trip! We were blessed with good weather, which was great and I think made all the difference. But based on the experience I think it would have been great even with rainy weather. Tim was a great leader/guide and took us down to wade in the water. We also had a classroom based session with him which was very engaging for the children. I would highly recommend this trip to others.

I attended the creekside walk and loved it! Staff were very welcoming and knowledgeable, and it was a great opportunity to see Deptford from a different perspective.

The low tide walk was an amazing experience. There were swans, Canada Geese, Egyptian geese, crabs, shrimps, clams and even an eel. All sorts of plant life as well. The guide was friendly and knowledgable and the volunteers were also great. I loved it and so did my 10 year old. Thanks for an amazing day out!!!
