About the event

A wildlife day camp for 8-12 year olds outside on the beautiful nature reserve. With the autumn colours all about us, the theme this time is sticks and leaves! You'll be building dens, creating wild art including leafy masks and making bushcraft jewellary. Lots of the animals on the reserve use sticks and leaves to help survive the winter - find out all about them and help them prepare for the cold months ahead. The camp is run by our trained and experienced learning team, children can be dropped off and collected at the end of the day.  The day will be packed full with wildlife themed games, activities and exploration all over the nature reserve, helping the children to connect with the amazing world around us. 

We'll spend the day in the great outdoors, but the centre does have a beautiful indoor classroom space in case of bad weather. Further information will be sent at time of booking, including a parental consent form that MUST be completed and returned prior to attending the day.

We are committed to keeping our visitors, staff and volunteers safe. Please DO NOT allow your child to attend if they are unwell, or testing positive for an infectious illness, such as COVID-19. Your consideration is hugely appreciated.

Please note the centre is accessible by public transport with regular buses (including connection to Didcot Parkway railway station) serving Milton Park, a few minutes walk from the centre.
