Join us for some forest fun and create unforgettable memories with your loved ones in the woods. Our Stay and Play sessions are perfect for families looking to get out and experience the wonders of nature.
Led by our fully qualified forest school leaders, each session is a chance to explore the amazing woodlands, experience nature, and join in with the themed activities. No two sessions are ever the same and will include a variety of activities such as crafts, games, stories, den building, scavenger hunts and pond dipping. All sessions include a drink and a snack around the campfire.
Please dress for the outdoor, forest environment. Everyone will need to wear sturdy closed-toe shoes, with a long-sleeved top and trousers. Please bring waterproofs, sun cream and additional warm layers as appropriate on the day.
The forest site is a 5-minute walk from the car park at Wrexham University Northop campus, CH7 6AA. The walk is suitable for pushchairs and is wheelchair accessible. Please let us know about any reduced physical abilities or additional learning needs when booking.
Each session is £10 a child, with accompanying adults £3, plus get 10% off with an Xplore annual pass!
All events are non-transferable and non-refundable. Events will go ahead in all weathers, except for high winds or extreme temperatures. If we do cancel the session, we will contact you, and a full refund will be given.
🌞Mark the longest day and the peak of the suns power with us this midsummer. We embrace the fullness of the season with gratitude for the bounty of the natural world.
🌻Celebrate the solstice by creating green man clay guardians to watch over the woods in the waning of the year. Capture the power of the sun itself by creating suncatchers or sundials. Gather seasonal flowers to create a crown that will radiate sunshine wherever you go. And it wouldn’t be complete without a picnic round the campfire, stories and dances.
