    Morning and afternoon sessions: The ReThink space in the Sammy Ofer Wing of the National Maritime Museum (nearest DLR station is Cutty Sark; nearest rail stations are Maze Hill or Greenwich). Enter the museum via the Parkside entrance inside Greenwich Park, near the ship in the bottle sculpture. Ask for directions to ReThink from a member of staff at the entrance. It's just behind the info desk, to the left.
