The Courtyard’s Porridge Trail at Queenswood

The Courtyard teams up with Herefordshire Wildlife Trust for a summer of events at Queenswood Country Park

To celebrate the Senior Youth Theatre performance of Down To The Woods, we have worked with Queenswood Country Park & Arboretum to create a Porridge Trail!

Down to the Woods, is performed by the Courtyard’s Senior Youth Theatre from 19 – 22 July. The show is an immersive experience created especially for 2 to 7-year olds but can be enjoyed by the whole family.

We’re continuing the theme at Queenswood Country Park, with The Porridge Trail, perfect for ages 2 to 7 and running every day from the 8 – 23 July.

The bears need your help to find the ingredients to make their morning porridge! You’ll need to collect a trail map and activity sheet from the Visitor Centre to complete the trail successfully. Then head back to the Visitor Centre to collect your reward sticker and enter a competition to win a family ticket to this year’s children’s Christmas show at The Courtyard.

Follow the trail to find six audio points and wind the handles to hear the bears from The Courtyard’s interactive family performance of “Down To The Woods“. The bears will give you the clues you need to find your way around the woods.

The Porridge Trail will be running at Queenswood Country Park & Arboretum (Dinmore Hill Leominster HR6 0PY)
Saturday 8 – Sunday 23 July
£3 per trail.
