Family Friendly Discovery Days
Familes are always welcome at the New Forest Centre - there is plenty to do for all ages and during the holidays we run special family friendly activity days called Discovery Days.
- All Discovery Days are drop-in so no pre-booking necessary.
- All children under 16 have FREE admission and must be accompanied during the drop in sessions.
- For most the standard adult admission charges apply. Please note that if you become a Friend of the New Forest Centre you will have twelve months unlimited entry to the Museum.
- For some sessions we ask for a small donation towards the cost of any extra materials used.
Every TUESDAY and THURSDAY during the school holidays we run a drop in session where the whole family get a chance to explore the Museum in more detail and join in some enjoyable Forest themed activities.
