✨WILD WISDOM - SUMMER FOREST SCHOOL🌳

Looking for something to do with the kids over the summer holidays?
Join us for our new Forest School sessions in the beautiful palace gardens. An outdoor adventure designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and a love for nature 💚

There are two different sessions, advanced booking is essential :

🍂Session 1: Wednesday 13 August
For Ages 8+
Make a Bath Soak: Introduction to Herbs
Discover the herbs growing in the Palace Gardens
Learn about their historical uses in healing and daily life
Create your own herbal bath tincture to take home

🌱Session 2: Wednesday 27 August
For Ages 3–8
Acorn Charms: Focus on Oak and Acorns
Explore the symbolism of oak trees and acorns
Hear stories and folklore about these mighty trees

Through hands-on activities, children will explore the fascinating world of plants, stories, and symbols rooted in the gardens and local history. They’ll discover how certain plants—like those carved into the stonework of the Minster’s Chapter House—have been used for centuries and still grow today in the Palace and Physic Gardens. It’s a playful and imaginative journey into the natural wonders all around us!
