Every year, up to a thousand children visit St Asaph Cathedral as part of the School Visits Programme. Through workshops and exploration they learn about its history and purpose and about life and worship at the Cathedral today.

The emphasis of the workshops is participation, experience and discovery. The precise nature of each workshop will depend on the volunteer leading on the day.  However if there are particular things you would like included, please let us know. A Teacher’s Resource Pack is provided at the end of your visit.
