About this event

  • 2 hours 45 minutes

Suitable for 8 - 12 year olds only.

Let the rangers introduce you to Bronze Age life and teach you some of the skills that our ancestors would have employed in order to survive and thrive. You will have a chance to make your own clay pot, whittle your own hunting spear and even make stick bread and cook it over an open fire!
