This week was very exciting for our younger children, as they had a day at Waddesden Manor on Wednesday. The day started with a bug hunt in Dame Alice's Wood, with children spotting many mini-beasts, then designing and making their own "bug hotels." There were lots of burrows in the woods, but fortunately no Hedgehogs, Otters or Squirrels were lost down there! Then there was a tour of the formal garden, and a visit to the golden aviaries, which was full of exotic birds from around the World.
A perfect day out in the sunshine!
