Mining and Minerals - Discovery Club

Cornwall’s geology rocks! Discover surprising facts about the distinctive geology that makes Cornwall so special before creating your very own mining landscape diorama.

This workshop is suitable for children aged 8 - 14.

Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis.

Parents and guardians may accompany their children but are also welcome to drop them off at the workshop if they prefer. Our Discovery Club Team Leaders are fully DBS checked and First Aid trained.

We have a range of workshops taking place as part of Discovery Club this Spring, and you’re welcome to book your child onto as many as you wish.

This workshop has been made possible by funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund.
