Is it half-term already? It seems like only yesterday everyone was back to school after Christmas break! February is always a difficult half term, the weather is temperamental and it still gets dark pretty early, but there are so many things on this week in and around Brighton to keep your little ones entertained.

Learn about sea life today, fossil sea creatures from the ancient past and the dangers that are facing our seas today. The discovery day is free and the perfect way to end the week!
