Half term fun and a family supper night

Hello again! Although the National Wildflower Centre is closed until March there are still lots of things going on here for you to put in your diary.
 Next week is half-term and the centre is offering a range of fun activities including one as part of the big draw. 
 On Monday (26th October) there is a collage session for just £2.50, on Wednesday there is a printing workshop (£2.50), Thursday there will be minibeast drawing (£2.50) and on Friday there is lantern making (£4). If you would like to come to one of the sessions at 1pm or 2pm then you need to book by ringing 0151 738 1913. Hopefully I'll have some pictures from these events for the next blog!
 
Another event to look forward to is our Family Supper Night on Friday 13th November. This will be a fantastic opportunity to enjoy some delicious food, storytelling and a torchwalk around the park. The cost is just £10 per head and under 15s eat free, you can also BYO. You will need to book by ringing the centre on 0151 738 1913 and please arrive at 6pm.

 Then of course there's the centre's Winter Celebration which takes place this year on Sunday 6th December between 12 and 4pm. This is a really popular event, and yet again admission is FREE. There will be lots to do, for all ages, including crafts, workshops as well as a Santas's Grotto and lots of scrumptious food and drink to buy in the Cornflower Cafe. 
 
 The National Wildflower Centre and Landlife have another reason to celebrate as they have just won the WalkWise Award 2009 at the Merseyside Transport Award. The centre received a beautiful glass trophy and a really cute green mini superlambanana for the best walking initiative or achievement.

The centre would also like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported the Coffee morning held at the National Wildflower Centre's Cornflower Cafe's. The event was part of the World's Biggest Coffee Morning in aid of Macmillan - Cancer Support on Friday 25th September 2009 and £230 was raised.
 The cafe is still open Monday to Friday and we are taking booking for Christmas lunches for December. Again please ring 0151 738 1913 for further details and to book.
