Description
Dive into a full day of outdoor adventure at Plenty Gorge in South Morang, just 20km north of Melbourne. In this hands-on workshop, kids will explore the bush, discover winding creeks, and build their very own cubbies from natural materials. From climbing, balancing, and navigating the forest floor to games that spark imagination, children will develop bushcraft skills while connecting with nature. Perfect for young explorers eager to get muddy, adventurous, and completely immersed in the wild.
Some of the other activities that the children may also do at forest school are;
-
- Learn rope knots and construction.
- Boat making & construction
- Bush survival and snake safety.
- Nature connection games
- Eco art & craft
Our team of highly experienced forest school educators will support your child’s learning so that they become more confident, curious, and capable and are taught to learn how to take safe risks in the bush through climbing, building and using real tools. They will also discover and learn about our natural environment and it’s fascinating wildlife.
The forest school is led by Kirsty. Kirsty is a qualified primary school teacher who is passionate about child-led, nature-based education, bringing a gentle, empathetic, and curious approach to every learning experience
