About the event

Make the most of the summer holidays with a lovely day out on the nature reserve for the whole family. The theme is freshwater wildlife! Meet the pond creatures close up, try stream dipping, have a wild time in the sensory play ponds, get creative in the giant mud kitchen, come along to a live story telling session, step into the walk in pond, go bird spotting and much more! Stop by the education centre for a cuppa and a delicious slice of cake. Bring a picnic lunch to enjoy at our picnic tables. We'll have hot drinks and cakes for sale - CASH ONLY PLEASE!

Please note the centre is accessible by public transport with regular buses (including connection to Didcot Parkway railway station) serving Milton Park, a few minutes walk from the centre.

We are committed to keeping our visitors, staff and volunteers safe. Please DO NOT attend if you or your child are unwell, or testing positive for an infectious illness, such as COVID-19. Your consideration is hugely appreciated.
