Friday 31st May is a SEND session:
SEND groups are always welcome at all of our sessions.
Wakefield Museums & Castles are also running these SEND sessions for visitors who benefit from a more relaxed atmosphere.
The sessions will be run with more sensory activities and more focus on independent learning.
There will also be a lower light level and with a sensory tent and ear defenders available upon request.
