Event information

Celebrate World Book Day with Stick Man! Join us at Martineau Gardens on Thursday 7 March( or Sunday 10 March 2019) for a session of activities based around the book ‘Stick Man’. Create your own book to complete on the Stick Man Trail, and search for other Julia Donaldson characters and woodland animals hiding around the Gardens. We will read the story in the woods and make up some of our own new adventures for Stick Man! The session will finish with some Stick Man craft in our cosy Pavilion. Why not come dressed as Stick Man or a different book character of your choice?

Here's what you need to know:
This family learning event is with Juliette Green (Martineau Gardens' Education Officer) for supervised children with parents / carers expected to stay and join in the fun, but don’t pay. The activities are aimed at 3 to 7 year olds but tickets may be bought for younger / older siblings too. Dress for the weather, as parts of the session will take place outside. Bring a drink and a snack if you’d like to have a picnic at Martineau Gardens, Martineau Gardens serves hot and cold drinks (for which donations are welcomed) but not food.

Ticketing info:
£5 per child, no sibling discount, parent / carer goes free. Max. 20 children per session. Advance booking essential. Refund policy: Bookings for courses and events are non-refundable unless Martineau Gardens has to cancel an event or course due to unforeseen circumstances.

Martineau Gardens is a beautiful therapeutic community garden, a place where people, plants and wildlife meet. Your ticket price contributes to the great things that happen here, and helps to keep Martineau Gardens open, for all to enjoy.

We are one of a very select group of city farms, community gardens and care farms in the UK that have been chosen to host a Stick Man trail, which have been created by Social Farms & Gardens, a charity that uses land-based activities to improve people’s lives and the places where they live. Find out more about Social Farms & Gardens via www.farmgarden.org.uk
The Stick Man trail (installed thanks to the support of Magic Light Pictures) is based on the much-loved Stick Man picture book written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.
