Get involved with arts and craft masterclasses, demonstrations and workshops; literature and storytelling from Eltham Arts, and stories of the trolls of Castle Wood from Tea Dance for Little People. Wayne Foskett will be transforming the castle into a camera obscura. Kallie Schut, Severndroog Trustee and yoga teacher, leads a yoga class and gong bath highlighting the wellness benefits of the castle's location in the wood. Daily talks from the castle and not to be forgotten the Big Severndroog Online Quiz.
