About the event

Who's ready for a WILD day of adventure? Our exciting summer event at Grange Farm, Chigwell, will ensure the whole family has a day to remember. Exciting animal meet and greets from a local zoo, pond dipping, a trail around the meadows, and more! - Begin your session with one of our Wilder Learning Team as you go pond dipping, discover all the fascinating creatures that call our pond their home. What will you find hiding beneath the surface? How many species will you be able to identify? - Next, you will be guided down to our private area of woodland, where you and your family will come face-to-face with a range of exotic animals. Lucy from Cedars Nature Centre will provide an educational, interactive, fun, and exciting animal meet and greet, where some of you will get the opportunity to meet and even stroke some of these amazing animals! - Once you have finished your woodland adventure, the day isn't over yet! For the remaining time in your slot (or longer if you wish) your mission is to complete the wildlife themed trail around the meadow to claim a prize at the end. Other activities/crafts may be present along the trail too!
