Fryent Country Park is situated in the Wembley/Kingsbury area of Brent. It consists of woodland, meadows, hedgerows, ponds and even paddocks with horses.
It offers an ideal opportunity to study the life processes strand of the Science National Curriculum, but activities can also be provided covering local history or art. Children will be able to pond dip, go on a bug hunt, build mini-shelters and just enjoy the pleasure of running through meadows and enjoying the open air.
All activities are free and covered by Brent School Without Walls public indemnity insurance. Martin Francis who runs the activities is a retired teacher and has an enhanced CRB check.
Bus route 206 from Kilburn Park via Willesden and Harlesden now comes to the Paddocks with immediate access to the park. It is not crowded off-peak so useful for schools in the south of the borough to come to the country park.
