Our expert learning team run a range of exciting nature-inspired activities for families.

This session is themed around autumn nature and wildlife that we can discover and learn more about – as well as celebrating spooky season!

There will be a scarecrow trail, Halloween alley, natural crafts, shelter building, minibeast walks and mask making. Plus there will be some extra trick or treats added to the mix!

The activities are suitable for the whole family to enjoy, allowing you and your children to connect with nature together (and giving you the chance to find your inner child!).

To help plan and safely staff the sessions, please book your place in advance.

Please note there will be a mix of themed scarecrows to be found across the site, and one of them includes a large spider.
