kids making creative pieces with leaves and paint

About

Join Zoe, an experienced primary school teacher who will be running Nature Maker sessions for children during the summer holidays. The sessions will be hands-on, eco-friendly, and will include activities such as making “nature wands”, “nature crowns”, clay mosaics, and seed planting.

The children can take home everything that they make and all materials will be supplied. The activities are primarily aimed at children aged 4-10 years old, with some flexibility, as long as parents can be present and support their children. 

Nature Makers sessions are available to members and day ticket holders. Prices will be set at £6 per child, and there are 12 places for each session. Parents/carers to remain with their children for the duration of the session.
