Where we meet

What we do 

These nature play sessions offer your child the opportunity to explore, discover and experiment at their own pace and in their own way – through play. Experiences can include crafting with nature items, nature weaving, clay play, woodwork, using drills, creek play, building rope courses, cooking on a fire and so much more.

Each week, Bush Adventurer’s typically follows this routine: 

• •  

     

    9:00am | Arrive & safety talk

    Arrive in readiness to begin.

    Acknowledgement to Country and compulsory safety talk for all participants. At this time we will discuss the morning’s play and any seasonal changes occurring in our natural environment.

    Reflections of our play, thank you and goodbye.

Our bush site has a large pram-friendly grassed area at its entrance which is our morning tea area. You and your children can stop for a snack at your leisure. Everyone must use the handwashing/sanitising facilities available before entering and when leaving the bush site. Please be aware of possible allergies and only consume food and drinks in the morning tea area.

What does it cost?

Each session is a mix of exploring the local bush surrounds, complimented by focused sensory and early learning experiences with quality resources.

We require a minimum of 5 families for the session to go ahead. If there are any changes in the program, participants will be contacted, and an announcement posted on social media.
