Holiday Activities

​Our half term and holiday activities are designed to foster an appreciation of nature. Some events will be practical, some will be cross-curricular, some will be seasonal and hopefully encourage the children to become nature detectives, spotting the signs that herald changes in the Reserve over the course of a year.

The Compass Trail

Tuesday, 14th February
10am and 11.30am
​
Come and spend an hour exploring Home Wood. The children can follow a trail through Home Wood, using compasses to lead them to the answers to nature and wildlife questions.

With the use of compasses this activity is probably better suited to KS2 children, but younger siblings are more than welcome to join in.

The nature trail is an outside event, so please come appropriately dressed.

Making Bird Feeders

Wednesday, 15th February
10am and 11.30am
​
These are the hungry months for wildlife. Last year's fruit and nuts have been eaten or are now inedible.

So now is the time birds need most help with nutritious and calorific food put out for them.

Come and spend an hour making a couple of birds feeders, stuffed with fat and seeds.


​Please book one ticket for each child who will be dissecting a pellet. There will need to be at least one adult per family group.

Having parked in the main car park, walk to the Visitor Centre. There will be signs to direct you to the classroom, which is a 10 minute walk from the VC. Please be aware the only toilet is at the VC.
​
If you use the what3words app regrowth.rods.stump will bring you to the main car park on the Reserve.
