Drayton Manor Theme Park

Good afternoon everyone. Our group is going to talk about Drayton Manor Theme Park. Do you know Drayton Manor park? It is in the UK, near Tamworth in Staffordshire. Our group is going to talk about The History of Drayton Manor park , Thrill Rides, Thomas Land, and Zoo.

First let me talk about the history of Drayton Manor Theme Park. Drayton Manor Theme Park opened to the public on October 16, 1949. It covers 280 acres of land, and is visited by over million people annually. In 2006, the park received two awards. For example, ‘Best UK Attraction’ awarded by Group Leisure and ‘UK Attraction of the Year’ awarded by Coach Tourism.

The theme park was built by George Bryan and his wife Vera Bryan as
an inland pleasure resort, and originally it was a normal park with tea rooms, boat rides and a pets corner.
However, the theme park is one of famous family theme parks at this moment.


There are many thrill　rides in Drayton manor. The most popular thrill rides is Shockwave. It is the only stand-up coaster in Europe. It drops quickly and screws again and again!! It looks really exciting!! Of course other thrill rides look really exciting too. Fir example, Maelstrom, Stormforce, and G Force so on. If you know more detail, you should access their web page. You can watch movies of thrill rides there.


I will introduce to you the zoo at Drayton Manor Park. There are over 100 species animals and which are not seen in Japan. We can learn about animals more if we receive Discovery Centre. This session is integrated with a tour of Drayton Manor Zoo, and we can understand about all areas of animals, for example habitats feeding variety of life living things lifecycles and so on. Discovery Centre sessions start at just £3.50 per pupil with 1 teacher. In Japan about 700 yen. I recommend you go to the zoo in Drayton Manor with your family, if you marry and have your children.


I am going to introduce Thomas land at Drayton Manor Park! I think that everyone knows Thomas. This is the Thomas area. It was set in 6000 square meters and there are 12 wonderful rides, and an indoor play area and a shop filled with Thomas&friends Exibition because we can not only experience the original set as TV show but also have a ride on Thomas and go for a wild adventure on the Trucks Runaway Coaster! Neverthless Thomas fan or not, this area will present for you a really fun time.

No other theme park gives as much variety as Drayton Manor. If you go to the UK, you should go to the Drayton Manor Theme Park. Thank you for listening to our presentation. Do you have any questions?
