    About this event

    Little ones and parents can learn together during our family friendly river dipping sessions.

    Book your tickets here

    Activities are suitable for children of age 4-11 years and children must be supported by a guardian or parent during the session.

    • Explore the river using our equipment and wildlife identification guides
    • Make a dragonfly to take home
    • Make a boat out of recycled materials to race down the river

    Children and parents will need wellington boots to explore the river (no crocs or bare feet please). bringing a change of socks and spare clothes is recommended!

    Sessions are 1 hour long and require booking a free place. The boat race will be held at the end of the session.

    Families can drop by and leave any time during their pre-booked session.

     

    This event is part of Hidden Heritage Secret Streams, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund

    Artbomb Festival

    All day
    13-08-22

    Don Catchment Rivers Trust is a partner of this year’s Artbomb Festival in Doncaster, where local to international artists have been exploring research questions relating to the themes of water, rivers, land-use, climate-change, rewilding and alternative ecologies! There’s so much to get involved with over the weekend with exhibitions from some fantastic creatives, so make sure to check out the programme  (click here) and get yourself booked on for some events.

    We are most looking forward to Inari Wishiki’s performance at Hexthorpe  Rowing Club, involving a hand-made coracle that will cross the river (click here to book) and spotting Chris Dobrowolski’s rickshaw made out of river Don rubbish. You’ll also find us at the Step & Stoop outdoor conversations on Saturday in the town centre, plus much more!
