Woodland Stay and Play for Neurodivergent children

Performance

A creative woodland session for neurodivergent children and their families.

This small-group ‘stay and play’ experience invites children to explore nature and creativity at their own pace using natural materials like clay, wool, sticks, leaves. They can build, create, imagine or simply enjoy being in the forest. Designed as an alternative to busy events, this session offers a gentle, sensory-friendly environment with quiet spaces, hammocks for regulation, and visual supports provided.

There will be 2 groups during the day, 10:30am to 1pm or 2pm to 4:30pm

Parents/carers stay on site.
