Are you ready for a summer full of arts and crafts, exploring nature, growing and sowing, and digital storytelling?
Last year we had so much fun with the Earth Explorers holiday sessions for children aged 8 to 12 that we are running them again this summer.
Sessions will take place on Wednesdays 2 to 3:30pm at Tayport Community Garden between 4 Jul to 8 August. They are free but bookings are essential – you can attend them all or pick what you fancy. To get an idea of what to expect, have a look at our blogs from last year here.
Below is the list of all of the planned sessions and topics we are planning to cover. Please book through online form on Eventbrite
