Back to school

As children around the country are heading back to school this week, you may want to plan something special this weekend

for your young learners!

Why not visit Westonbirt Arboretum and battle it out on our ping pong table, or hire a sports bag and have a family game of rounders!

After your fun and games it will be time for some lunch, so bring along your picnics or even head to the Westonbirt restaurant for an ice cream treat!

Refuelled and raring for adventure, take your explorers along the Gruffalo trail and discover your favourite characters along the way. Wander through the trees, finding colourful fallen leaves of all shapes and sizes – perfect for show and tell at school.

Finally, have a look in the Westonbirt shop for a memento of your fun day out. There are lots of special gifts to purchase from yummy treats to stationery and books!

We would love to hear from you – snap some photos and share your day with us at #friendsofwestonbirt on Instagram.
