Harry Potter Book Party

Harry Potter Book Party

We'll meet at 5.45pm just outside the library ready to be sorted into houses and then once in the library we'll play games, make wands, potions or snitches and then have a fun quiz before the house points are added up and prizes awarded. The party is suitable for children aged 8+ and will be free. Due to space concerns a ticket will be needed - collect these from the children's library or email millennium.lib@norfolk.gov.uk to reserve.

Free fun games, quizzes and crafts at the Library's Harry Potter Book Party.  Fancy Dress optional but there will be prizes.

Blickling Hall Estate Walk

Blickling Hall Estate in Aylsham

The Blickling Estate is lovely: The lake, the woods, the Hall and Gardens, the Mausoleum.  Particularly nice in bluebell season but also good for a mid winter stroll.

You can park for free at Blickling Hall if you're a National Trust member or alternatively you can park by the woods which is free parking (just start the walk at the Great Wood)
