There are lots to do and enjoy this half term, including Scarborough’s Skipping Day traditions, free entry to Bridlington’s Sewerby Hall and Filey Bird Gardens reopening for the first time this year!
This a small list that we have collated and there may be other events happening in these areas.
13. February Half Term on the Yorkshire coast and Ryedale
Stephen Joseph Theatre will be presenting funny, magical and wondrous, folk classics Little Red Riding Hood, Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella and Rumpelstiltskin and others from the Brothers Grimm in the acclaimed poet Carol Ann Duffy’s enchantingly fresh adaptation, with a beguiling and playful dramatisation by Tim Supple. Join the SJT Youth Theatre groups for an adventure through some of the most famous stories ever told. Perfect for children ages 8+ – (or really brave 7 year olds!) – and their families from Thursday, February 15 to Saturday, 17 February Photo: Marisa Cashill
