About the event

Guided by our experts, you will explore the Nature Gardens pond and uncover a variety of fascinating freshwater creatures, learning how to identify them along the way. Using nets and trays, we’ll take a closer look at what we find before carefully returning everything to its habitat. Our team will be on hand throughout to answer your questions and share their knowledge. A great opportunity to get up close to these often overlooked species and learn more about pond life.

There will be several time slots available on the day, with 5 spots available in each. You will be able to choose your time slot upon booking.
