The Education Centre allows catering within our facilities. Food and beverages may be enjoyed within most rooms in the Centre, however the Seminar Room and Foyers are best suited to this purpose. The exception to this is The Lecture Theatre where no food or beverages (except bottled water) are allowed.
Users of the centre are welcome to bring their own refreshments or employ professional catering with the following conditions:
- A representative must be present to meet and advise catering staff as they arrive.
- Food may not be cooked on the premises.
- If catering equipment cannot be collected immediately after an event, it must be packed up neatly in the South Foyer, and collected on the next weekday morning after 8:30am.
