Abberton Spooky Species Hunt
About this Event
Which spooky species will we find at Abberton this October Half Term? We shall search high and low, looking for bugs, footprints, poo and even pond creatures as we make it our mission to find the creepiest creature we can. We can even make a spooky species of our own to take home.
Suitable for children aged 3-11. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
