In the morning, experienced theatre staff will work with children to take on the parts of different characters in a specially written tale about life on a chalk stream.

In the afternoon, the children will perform their play in front of their families, being able to have fun while learning about life on the river bank.

Ruth Craig, project officer said, “The Lincolnshire Chalk Streams May half term events are a great opportunity for people to learn about our rare Lincolnshire chalk streams.

“From free children’s events to practical conservation, there’s something for everyone.”
