Family Activities
24, 25, 27 and 29 May
Get creative and get stuck in with our family activities: craft your own replica codebreaking hut, use colourful shapes to create pictures inspired by the stunning stained-glass windows found in the Mansion and build your very own messaging system, just like the pneumatic tubes that once carried vital communications across Bletchley Park, which you can see in Block A. These sessions are suitable for families with children aged 5-14, accompanied by an adult. Just drop in any time between 11.00 and 15.30, (last admission to the session is 15.00).
