Workshop at Friston Forest
11am-3pm, 3-4 April 2023
Join us for two-days in Friston Forest. Together we will explore the theme of forests and the history of the forest using art, acting, music, movement, storytelling, group games, and den building. There will be a focus on improvisation, team building, creativity and having no fear of failure. Led by a qualified children’s drama therapy coach from Dragon Drama.
Conservation activities and exploration of the Seven Sisters Country Park
11am-3pm, 5-6 April 2023
We’re again partnering with South Downs National Park to offer 2 days of conservation activities and exploration in the Park. Young people will be invited to explore nature on our doorstep guided by a qualified woodland ranger. We will cook and eat outside together using Make (Good) Trouble’s mobile outdoor kitchen and BBQ setup.
Holiday club attendees can use our cameras and audio equipment to document their adventures. They can create short films, images and soundscapes of their experiences. These will be shared and celebrated through our social media and on our website.
Our team
