SCENTOPIA – a guided digital story for families

11am-12pm or 2-3pm

King and Queen of Scentopia have vanished without the trace, new weeds are taking over, Scentopia is dying… Can you save the Kingdom?

Join us on a guided walk through Chalkwell Park uncovering the mystery of kidnapped King and Queen of Scentopia. We’ll cross the Green Sea, meeting Rose People – the guardians of the underworld, Wilfred – the tree spirit, and Hybrid – the monster with two heads in the City of Leaves.

Scentopia is one of five NetPark’s GPS-activated story apps. It was created by writer Syd Moore, illustrator Karl Lawson and artist Elsa James, working with the students of Greenways Junior School. Each chapter is located in a different part of Chalkwell Park and written in response to the actual park landscape, encouraging imagination and exploration of a familiar park in a completely new way.

Tickets: FREE but booking essential (limited places) – BOOK HERE: www.metalculture.com/event/netpark-open-day-digital-story-walkabout-free-family-half-term-event-in-southend/

Note: Please arrive 10 minutes before the start of the session, so we can show you how to use the app.
