About the event

Our Wilder Holiday Club includes inspiring nature based activities, led by our team of experts. There will be plenty of opportunities for nature discovery, learning new skills, and following your interests with lots of time for free play! You can take part in everything from fire lighting to den building, natural crafts to tool use, and pond dipping to animal tracking, our holiday club has it all.

Wilder Holiday Club is for children aged 5 to 11 and runs from 9am to 3pm. We run sessions at sites across the county, activities will vary by site.

All our activities take place outdoors and children will need to come dressed for the weather. We recommend layers that can get mucky including long sleeves and trousers to protect against scratches and stings, waterproofs and boots, trainers, or wellies. Sandals and open-toed shoes are not permitted. In hot and sunny weather, we also recommend sun hats and sun cream. Please note that toilets may be a 5-10 minute walk depending on each site.

Your child will require a snack, water, and a packed lunch. We are nut-free so please do not include any items containing nuts. All rubbish will need to be returned home with your child. Some sites may have a campfire (weather permitting) and toasting suggestions will be sent on booking.

We need a completed consent form for each child attending Wilder Holiday Club. Without this, your child will not be able to attend.
