Easter Activities

🐰 EASTER HERITAGE FUN ON THE CASTLE GROUNDS 🐰 

📌 We have a number of events this Easter holiday on The Castle grounds, you’re in for a treat!  

➡️ Starting on Saturday 5th April, you can take part in the FREE Gurney Explorer Trail, collect a free activity sheet from Café Limelight on the first floor of The Castle Heritage Centre and hunt the museum for Gurney. You find him hiding in every nook and cranny. He holds a number of letters that you need to arrange to make a word. Once you have discovered it, revisit the cafe for a free sticker! The trail is open every day from 10am until its last day on Saturday 19th April as we will be closed on Easter Sunday. No booking required. 

➡️ You can also come along to our FREE ‘Lawn Games with Janie’ sessions on Tuesday 8th and 15th April and Thursday 10th & 17th April from 11am until 12pm. Discover some fun games such as chess and smite, plus more. No booking required, you will find Janie on The Castle lawn. 

🐠 We have the team from Bounce n’ Play with their inflatables on Wednesday 9th and 16th April, plus Thursday 10th and 17th April on The Castle Lawn. This is run by the team at Bounce n’ Play and will be weather dependent. You can find out more about them and any updates on cancellations on their dedicated Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/letsgoandparty. There is a small cost per child for these. They will be onsite from 11am until 4pm.  

➡️ Everyday you can also take part in the Fossil Fish Trail to find out some fascinating facts around the Museum. No activity sheet needed, just come along and find them whilst you browse the exhibitions. Free entry and open seven days a week from 10am.
