About the event

A one or two day course for families living in Southwark to tune into your senses and learn how to find signs of animals in the garden. Activities, games, stories, fun! Suitable for families with children of primary age but you are welcome to bring along other children too. Only 3 children per adult. Book for Monday or Tuesday or both days. On Monday you will explore the garden using your senses and set footprint traps. On Tuesday you will identify some tracks, find out if anything was caught on camera, make plaster casts and your own trail.  You may only book on to one free course per academic year. £3 to book. Please let us know if this is too much for you.
