Our Underwater World
Dive into a hidden world at the water’s edge and discover the secret lives of freshwater creatures.
This family-friendly pond dipping adventure invites young explorers to uncover the fascinating mini-beasts that live beneath the surface of our ponds. From the water’s edge, children will scoop, observe and investigate the tiny creatures that call these freshwater habitats home.
Through fun, hands-on exploration, children will learn more about pond life, freshwater habitats and the important role these amazing underwater residents play in a healthy ecosystem.

This event is suitable for young people aged 5-12. Children under 5 are not permitted on the activity, even if they are not taking part.
The session will last approximately 2 hours and we will start promptly, so please arrive in plenty of time. The meeting place will be sent in advance to those who book.
This is an outdoor session and will go ahead whatever the weather, but may be rescheduled or cancelled if conditions are severe. Please check the forecast before setting off and come prepared.
Please dress for the weather and ground conditions. Long trousers and robust walking shoes or wellies that can get muddy are essential (even in summer). Waterproofs are recommended if it is wet or cold.
