In the second week of the Easter break, North Norfolk District Council will be hosting two more events to keep the family entertained - Spectacular snakes and amphibians & Woodland Explorers. Both events are at Holt Country Park and pre-booking is required.

In addition to the countryside events the usual programme of children's activities will be on offer at the North Norfolk District Council-managed community sports centres at Stalham, North Walsham and Cromer during the Easter holidays. All-day activities are priced at £10. To make things easier for parents, there is the added option of arranging early drop-offs and late pick-ups for just £2. Again these are available to book now at www.north-norfolk.gov.uk/book.
