October half term events at Bluewater including Shaun the Sheep clay modelling and Hungry Caterpillar nature trail

Budding movie makers can take part in clay modelling workshops at a Kent shopping centre during the half term break.

The Shaun the Sheep themed classes will celebrate the launch of new film 'A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon' which is released on Friday, October 18.

The workshops, in which kids will be able to create their own Shaun the Sheep from clay take place at Bluewater from Monday, October 21 until Thursday, October 24.

The classes will run every 30 minutes from 10am until 6pm and cost £4 per person.

Visitors should head to the Moon Court within the Greenhithe Shopping Centre in order to book a slot on the day as the activity is available on a first come first served basis.

The activity, says the centre, is just one of a number of attractions it says will keep families busy during half term.

There is also the recently re-launched Nature Trail, which now features the classic children's book The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Gravity Trampoline Park, Dinotropolis soft play and the 17-screen Showcase Cinema de Lux.
