Following the huge popularity of our Discovery Club workshops over the last 12 months, we’re pleased to announce new dates for Spring/Summer 2024.
The workshops are priced at £5 per child per workshop, and you’re welcome to book your child onto as many as you wish.
We are anticipating high demand for these workshops and booking will open on Friday 9th February at 6pm via Eventbrite. Places are extremely limited and will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.
These workshops have been made possible by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, and we’re hugely grateful for its support.
Parents and guardians may accompany their children but are also welcome to drop them off at the workshop if they prefer. Our Discovery Club Team Leaders are fully DBS checked and First Aid trained.
