Explorer Club
Explorer Club
Join us each Saturday for an outdoor adventure in the woodlands surrounding the Farm Shop with our Explorer Leader!
Children and explorers will go on a sensory journey, discovering things such as:
Sounds in nature
Touch and feel of textures in the natural environment
Looking for shapes and colours in nature
Each session includes a craft workshop, which might include making models using clay or using feathers and foraged objects to sculpt, draw and paint.
There will always be a campfire to gather around, where explorers might sing or read a story. And there’s always time for the children to enjoy a hot chocolate and a marshmallow, too!
Each explorer will be awarded a certificate at the end of the session to celebrate the completion of a great day out.
Key information

Join us every Saturday, rain or shine, for an outdoor adventure in the Hawarden Estate woodlands with our Chief Explorer, Ffion.
We’ll meet in the courtyard through the Farm Shop at 10am, before heading off together on a woodland journey to the Wildcat Wood. Over 90 minutes, children will immerse themselves in nature - listening, exploring, and discovering all the wonders our beautiful woodland has to offer!
Each session is jam-packed with forest fun, including a craft to take home, plenty of opportunities for bug hunting and den building, as well as time to get messy in the mud kitchen. With plenty of room to run and dance, there are no dull moments at Explorer Club!
We finish off our session by gathering together at the campfire, warming our tummies with some delicious hot chocolate, as well as a campfire treat. And no campfire is complete without some campfire songs!
From bird watching to fire starting - our activities change weekly, you’ll find something suitable for all ages (including grown-ups!) every week.
