Terence's Driving School

[Harry]

Opening in 2008 and built by SB International. Terence's Driving School is a perfect and free interactive ride that children can go on and enjoy. With a maximum height of 1.4m and minimum of 1.0m, this ride is perfect for children and a nice relaxing ride as it's located outside of the main park and by the end of the zoo.

I wonder what’s been up with the ride since the park been open as all 4 visits it’s been closed with a maintenance sign outside the queue line.

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

They had maintenance in the shed last month. I think the flood done damage to the batteries and they may all need replacing or could be worse and the vehicles all need replacing which the park may decide not to been on the other side of Thomas Land.

I've heard that they were all very badly damaged in the February floods. I doubt they will be making a return anytime soon.

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

Yeah it depends on how much each of them cost. My daughter was gutted they were not open this year.

I'm hoping my son hasn't gotten to tall in the last year to ride these are he really used to enjoy them.

It opened on Monday but pretty sure it closed again after Wednesday I think

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

I see it’s got a new entrance sign but yet again it was closed

 

[Wilko]

Has anyone seen this open yet?

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

I think it needs to go back to its former area in Thomas land as it went in between the shop and toilets.

There is the tiny tots play area.

Surely this could be relocated or simply just removed as I would say Spencer's bit is more than suitable even for younger children.
