Hive Eco Kids 
Tuesdays 2-4pm for 6-10years* 
Thursdays 10am-12pm for 10-16years*
(*approximate age for suitability) 
Hive Eco Kids is an opportunity for home-educated children to get involved at the site learning about conservation, gardening, biology, ecology and natural arts and crafts. With visits from guest tutors, each session will have a connection to nature, from building fences and nest boxes to propagating and cultivating seeds, to bird watching and pond dipping.

These sessions are for unaccompanied home-educated children, with a limit on places to adhere to current Covid-19 guidelines (parents who are volunteering at the session are welcome to stay!). Children will need to be dressed appropriately for working outdoors in all weather, and parents must inform us of any accessibility issues or relevant medical conditions or allergies you feel we should know about. There will always be a qualified first aider present at the site. Please ensure your child a water bottle and a snack with them, we can provide a hot drink during the session.

We hope that these children will enjoy learning about caring for the environment and picking up some creative skills along the way. We will be inviting various visitors to offer tuition, including topics such as pottery, woodwork, archery, cooking and gardening. This term we are working in partnership with Explore Outdoor, who will be leading some fireside sessions including cooking on the fire and forest school style activities.

£10 per session for Hive members. (£12 for non members) 25% discount for siblings.
(Booking is for a half term block of sessions) 

Both our Tuesday and Thursday sessions are currently FULLY BOOKED. 

Please email us if you would like to be added to a waiting list.

Tuesday 26th April - 24th May 2022
Thursday 28th April - 26th May 2022

Please let us know if you have any accessibility issues or relevant medical conditions or allergies you feel we should know about.
We look forward to sharing some outdoor adventures with you!

You can choose to pay on the day with cash, or pay online.
