It is valid for up to 6 children under 13 years old.
If you are registered for more than 6 children, we apologise but this pass is a maximum of 6. We do not offer a higher ratio. This is due to safety reasons and is the same ratio set for group visits.
For health and safety reasons the maximum number of children you can bring is 6 per adult. It is the same as our school’s ratio of 1 adult to every 6 children.
You cannot pay for extra children if you are already visiting with 6.
