SCHOOLS ICE SKATING

From our award-winning six-week Schools Ice Skating Programme and one-off trips to skating with Olympians and the Nottingham Panthers, there’s lots to try here at the National Ice Centre. Read more about our options here. 

SCHOOL ICE SKATING PROGRAMME

Our award winning Schools Ice Skating Programme offers an exciting and motivational experience for children. Upon completion of the programme, every child receives a certificate of achievement. Over 30,000 children have participated in the programme to-date and it's seen by the Youth Sport Trust as being an inspiring way for young people to take part in PE and sport who are not yet engaged. To learn more about our Schools Ice Skating Programme or to book a skating session for a school group, contact our ice sports team via icesports@national-ice-centre.com.

"One of the children has dyspraxia and finds it hard to balance and be coordinated. Confidence has gone through the roof and he had gone from clinging on to the side to skating backwards!"

He has demonstrated great pride in his achievements, skating willingness to have a go even when he has fallen over or found it difficult an demonstrating his resilience in this area."

“One of the boys struggles with gross motor skills and is autistic. It has been wonderful to see him progress from used a frame at the beginning of the sessions to ice skating independently.”

“One of the girls was very nervous and had to be resilient, she’s more academic rather than ‘sporty’ so this was her out of her comfort zone – she has done so well.”
