Queen’s Park free family and schools activity

August 14, 2020
The print out maps and postboxes at Queen's Park gates back in June - the postboxes are still there in August and September for you to use.
The print out maps and postboxes at Queen's Park gates back in June - the postboxes are still there in August and September for you to use.
We had a phenomenal demand for our Queen’s Park family activity trail in June and all printed copies were gone within a week! We’ve decided to add them as a free download for anyone signing up for our mailing list. You’ll get a free PDF to print out which you can take out into the park with you. Also ideal for schools and community groups…

 

Once printed out, these leaflets will take you on a guided trail around the park where you can learn snippets of info on its history and heritage. You can answer some questions, fill-in your own map, and design a flag!

 

We’d love you to share your drawings either by posting your leaflets in the postboxes sited at the various park gates at end of your walk, or by emailing photos of them to info@sghet.com – that way we can add them to our community archive.

 

If you got one of the fold-out print copies back in June, you can still share those completed maps for our archive too, again either in the postboxes, or by sharing snaps of them with us on Facebook or Twitter. Photos of the completed print out versions can also be sent to us at the same email address as above…

 

We decided to undertake this project after COVID-19 halted most of our planned projects so we altered our plans and created a lockdown activity that could be done safely in Queen’s Park. It’s aimed at families – and schools – but don’t let that stop anyone being creative, adults can play too!

Hope you have fun with them!
