Creekside Discovery Centre

Excellent guided tour by friendly and knowledgeable volunteers. History, geography, wildlife and more all packaged into a two-hour muddy walk where you can see the familiar from a brand new angle. Highly recommended!

Brilliant experience, Nick was great, excellent hangover cure!! 😀

The Creekside Discovery Centre provides deeply insightful sessions on environmental conservation. I had a wonderful day with Nick and Paddy, where I learnt a lot about the biodiversity of Deptford creek, the socio-polictical nuances on conservation, and am now inspired to take action towards re-greening of Urban wetlands. With priliminary training, we surveyed a small plot and documented vegetation in great detail. 10/10 reccommeded especially for being a well equipped centre.

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!!!

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.
