Bug Hunt at Whitefriars Open Space

Designed for nature lovers aged 4 to 8 years with their accompanying adult.

Does your child love hunting for minibeasts? Capture your child's fascination and learn amazing facts about these tiny creatures with Simon Braidman, our local expert. This event is subsidised by Harrow Parks Forum and supported by Friends of Whitefriars Open Space.

This fun event is designed to give children an insight into the world of insects. There will be a story, craft and insect hunt.

To ensure your safety and following Local Government regulations, we are allowed a maximum of 15 people at a session, so book your place fast to avoid disappointment. Please book a place for yourself as well as your child.

Please meet us at the gate to the field.

Parking is very limited but can be found on the local streets. There is no car park.

We are Covid aware and will be taking precautions to minimise any risk. We ask you to bring a rug or mat to sit on. Even though restrictions have been lifted, please look after yourselves and, where possible, stay 2m apart and remain sensitive to the needs of others who may be more vulnerable. As we are outdoors we do not need to wear a mask but feel free to wear one if this will make you feel safe.

Please bring:

• A rug or mat to sit on.
• Warm and waterproof clothes, we will be outdoors for the whole session
• Wellingtons or sturdy shoes as the ground can get muddy and be uneven
• Your Harrow Nature Heroes logbook (if you have one)

Please be aware that there are no toilets in the park.
