About this Event
Join Elena on a poetry hunt through Cornwall Park where we’ll follow our senses, stop along the way to get lost in our imaginations and, one line at a time, create our own nature-based poem. At the end of the walk, there’ll be an opportunity to read the poems we’ve made up to the group and any nearby trees who care to listen. Grown-up participation encouraged.
Suitable for tamariki 7+ and young-at-heart poetry lovers of all ages. Guardians must accompany children on the walk.
This walk is held outdoors so suitable clothing and footwear are necessary, don't forget your sunscreen, raincoat and water bottle. This walk goes ahead rain or shine. We will cancel the event via email on Sunday morning if the weather is extreme.
Registration is essential and numbers are limited. To register for this event please register through our Eventbrite page or email [email protected]. Let us know if you have any accessibility requirements.
