About This Event
The Secret Garden will become a hive of activity this summer. Enjoy a game of giant dominoes or jenga or have a kick-about at the penalty shoot-out. The outdoor theatre will be waiting to host its next performance, while the nature camp and obstacle course sit quietly, waiting for their next adventurers. For smaller explorers, the Tots’ Spot will include soft play and mud kitchens for big imaginations.
