Super Scientist, Becca Clarke returns to Base Camp to help us investigate wonderful worms! To help us understand what these undervalued creatures do underground, we’ll be making the different soil layers out of edible goodies, before we then go digging….
Who will find the longest? Who will find the most? Who will find an unusual species? One thing’s for certain everyone will come to love worms as they get to know just how essential these wiggly creatures are, for our soil health and food production.
Come the afternoon, we venture into to the woods to explore our creative talents. Using a variety of natural materials we’ll be painting on large canvas, sculpting in clay, making jewellery from wood and exploring new land art techniques that use tree trunks as canvasses!
With our experienced staff we’re able to offer so much more than just the activities - games, free play, crafts and child-led adaptations are all thrown into the mix to ensure everyone gets the most out of their day with us.
We can't wait to welcome you to Base Camp. To keep your child happy and dry in the woods, please send them with the following:
All seasons
Clothing: Long-sleeved tops and full-length trousers are required to protect against nettles, scratches, and ticks - tracksuit bottoms or leggings are perfect.
Think like an onion! Multiple thin layers (thermal, fleece, jacket) are better than one big coat.
Footwear:
Waterproof wellies or sturdy walking boots are essential. If it’s really dry, then old trainers will be ok too.
In Their Backpack:
A change of clothes (extra socks are a must!).
Waterproof jacket and trousers (even on dry days!).
A labelled water bottle, sun hat/sunscreen (summer), or warm hat/gloves (winter).
Packed Lunch (we provide drinks and snacks)
Top Tip: We love dirt! Please send your child in old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or snagged.
