SUMMARY:Guided Bird Walks on International Dawn Chorus Day
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate International Dawn Chorus Day on Sunday 3rd May\, we will be hosting two guided bird walks at Stanwick Lakes. \n“Early birds” are invited to join our first walk to hear the wetland birds as they wake up and start the symphony\, while those who prefer a lie-in can come along for a mid-morning stroll to hear which birds have joined the chorus. \nBoth walks will be led by knowledgeable local ornithologists\, who will use their expertise to help you identify the birds by song and by sight. Expect to hear birds that are resident on the wetland\, as well as summer migrants such as warblers and maybe even a cuckoo! \nThe “Early bird” walk will take place between 6am–8am\, followed by a hot drink and breakfast bap in the visitor centre from 8am–8.30am. \nThe “Mid-morning stroll” will start with a hot drink and breakfast bap at 8.30am in the visitor centre\, followed by the walk between 9–11am. \nBinoculars and bird guides will be available to borrow on the day. \nCancellation Policy\nNo refunds will be given unless we need to cancel the walks due to bad weather or illness. In this case\, we will do our best to arrange another date for the walks to take place. \nSuitability Recommendation\nThese walks are suitable for ages 10 and above. \nSpecial Conditions\nThe walks will take place in most weather conditions and may leave the main paths\, so please wear appropriate clothing and footwear.

SUMMARY:Spoon Carving Workshop - One Day
DESCRIPTION:On this therapeutic one-day beginners’ course at Stanwick Lakes you will learn how to carve a spoon using basic wood carving techniques and tools. \nYou will begin by learning how to cleave wood and use an axe to produce your spoon blank. The rest of the day will be spent using a sloyd knife and a hook knife to carve to shape your individual home-made spoon. The course covers a selection of knife grips\, which will keep your carving under control as well as keeping you safe. Time will be spent looking at how the spoon develops in a 3-dimensional form\, covering the spoons ‘crook’\, bowl and handle to get a well-balanced and functioning spoon. \nWooden spoons like you will make have been carved for thousands of years and for most of the population\, were used as an eating utensil until relatively recently. ‘Spoon’ was originally an Anglo-Saxon word that meant ‘a chip of wood’. The oldest known wooden spoon in England is a ladle found at Glastonbury Lake Village dating to 250BC. Another notable find of wooden spoons are the personal spoons found on the wreck of the Mary Rose. These spoons may have been whittled by their owners. \nThe course takes place in and around the purpose built oak framed craft barn at Stanwick Lakes which is managed by Rockingham Forest Trust as an environmental charity. \nStanwick Lakes is a protected Nature Reserve and a Wetland of International Importance\, covering 750 acres of open space with seven miles of paths\, a perfect inspiration to crafters and makers. \nDuring your lunchtime you can enjoy the onsite cafés and visit the heritage museum or sit by a lake and watch the wildlife. \nTo find out more\, view dates and get tickets\, visit: Spoon Carving | Stanwick Lakes

SUMMARY:Pond Dipping with a Ranger!
DESCRIPTION:Join our rangers for a pond dipping session this summer! \nUsing nets\, trays and magnifying glasses and guided by one of our rangers\, come and discover the creatures that live in the ponds at Stanwick Lakes! After a safety briefing and an introduction to the creatures we’re likely to find\, we’ll head to the pond dipping platform where you will be given a pond dipping kit! The Ranger will be on hand with identification keys to help you work out which creatures you have caught as well as to share knowledge about the pond ecosystem and the many species that call it home. \nSessions last approx. 30 minutes and a responsible adult must be present throughout. \nMeet at the Ranger Cabin 5 mins before your chosen ticketed start time. \nPlease bring appropriate footwear and clothing (including sun hats) and sun cream – it can be hot on the dipping platforms! \nBelow you are booking pond dipping for Tuesday 26th August 2025. \nPlease check the date carefully before you book as refunds cannot be given.
