Feel the love for brilliant bats during October’s spooky season at this month’s Nature Club! See bat bones with a skeleton X-ray comparison, and colour and cut out a cool bat mask to wear for Halloween. Spot our bat boxes outside in the woodland, and discover more about how bats roost and what they need to survive and thrive. Play the ‘bat game’ and learn about echolocation, using your voice and ears to avoid obstacles and move towards your prey – blindfolded! Make a flapping paper bat to take home and decorate your home, or bat cave!

Children must be accompanied by an adult during the club and all our activities are designed for adults and children to work together. Led by our expert club leaders, try out bespoke activities designed to provide science-inspired fun challenges. There is a different theme each week so we and you are always learning something new!
Nature Club is usually held in our workshop space, with some outdoor activities in most sessions, weather permitting.
