Half Term Plans

Monday, October 11th 2021

Due to popular demand the Halloween pumpkin trail will be back for the October half term!

Nothing too scarey, just find the pumpkins along the red route (pushchair and wheelchair friendly)!

Test your knowledge of the creatures associated with Halloween by answering the fun quiz which is available from the visitor centre for only 50p.

Thank you to Nicola for preparing this self guided trail in advance.

There are plenty more events to encourage the whole family out and about during the school holiday from owl pellet discovery to pumpkin carving.

On Wednesday 27th October it will be Wildlife Activity Day. Come and celebrate British Wildlife on this family fun day. There will be lots of hands - on craft activities for all ages; make bird feeders, beeswax candles, mini bug hotels and seed bombs. Craft a hedgehog or spider or bee from different materials to take away too. This is a drop in session so booking is not required. Donations towards costs of materials would be appreciated on the day. Further details can be found on the events page.
