Project
Bath Abbey has welcomed generations of school groups, and the family trail book was designed to help younger visitors explore the building with confidence and curiosity.
Created for Key Stage 2 and 3 learners, it needed to translate a rich and sometimes complex history into something playful, accessible, and genuinely useful on a visit, whether in classrooms or on-site.


Solution
ABG Design was commissioned to produce a new learning and activity trail book for children and school groups.
Illustrated by Ailsa Burrows, the book combines vibrant characterful artwork with a clear narrative that highlights the Abbey’s key spaces and stories. Through thoughtful book design and engaging graphic design, we structured the content around prompts, questions, and activity tasks that encourage participation and critical thinking.
The result is a practical, welcoming resource that makes Bath Abbey’s heritage feel relatable for young audiences and supports memorable learning on every visit.
