Tree Tales – Fun in Barrhill Woods

Did you know there are stories hidden in the trees? Come down to Barrhill woods this half term and hear what they have to say. You will have fun and create your own tales too!

This morning is for children and families to get creative and crafty in the woods whilst learning about the magic of trees.

There will be games, making and storytelling – plus you will learn how to become a Tree Whisperer!

Appropriate for ages 6-12 and their grown ups.

This session is not drop off, there will need to be a grown up at the session who is responsible for the young participants.

Please bring water, snacks and appropriate clothing for the weather – we will be outside, creating in the elements! You are welcome to stay and picnic lunch in the woods after the session. There will be hot drinks available durning the morning.

The morning will be led by Artist, Maker and workshop facilitator, Kirsty Harris; https://www.khmakesthings.co.uk/

When reserving a spot, please select one ticket per person attending, but note the age of the children in the order form.
