What’s on
Pond Dipping
Pond dipping has been cancelled. We apologise for any disappointment.
A chance for your children to connect with nature and experience Holkham lake’s complex aquatic ecosystem first-hand, giving them the skills and knowledge that books and screens cannot.
Our learning team will be on hand with all the equipment, tips and techniques your young explorers will need to enjoy their pond dipping experience. Holkham lake is alive and it’s magical; your child will be amazed at what they can spot wriggling around once they’ve emptied their nets into their tray. Join us on Mondays and Tuesdays throughout the summer holidays to discover what lurks beneath!
Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times. Pond dipping is suitable for children aged three upwards. As this event is extremely popular and limited to 12 places per session, we ask that you kindly pre-book online to avoid any disappointment on the day.
