Join us for a day in the bush connecting to nature and learning bush survival and bushcraft skills through hands on activities that are fun, engaging and connects your child to nature in a deep and meaningful way. During this session, we’ll be making primitive tools and using whittling knives to whittle wood.

This workshop will be held at Wattle Park in Burwood.

We have children that leave our programs saying, it was the best day of their lives!  Each Forest School holiday program is different so no two will be alike.

Some of the activities that will be offered during this ReWild Your Child Forest School program are:

• • • How to safety use tools (hammers, saws and drills ) and construct things out of wood
    • Bush walk discovering local fauna and flora
    • How to stay safe in the bush
    • Snake awareness and safety
    • Nature connection games
    • Creating, crafting, making art with natural materials

The Forest School workshop is led by Adam.

Adam is the founder of Eco Explorers and has been delivering bush programs to families for over 6 years. He spent his entire childhood living and camping in the bush; climbing mountains, exploring rivers, learning to fish, track, make fires and to survive. He is also a forest school leader and has a background in Outdoor Education.

Forest School Melbourne is an all-weather outdoor program so you need to make sure you bring appropriate weather protection and clothing. Our program will only be cancelled in the event of an extreme weather warning; fire, storm, high temperatures and strong wind.

Ages: 6-12 years
