Description
Join us in Term 4, 2025, for our Bush Kids Forest School families program (11 sessions). We’ll begin at Silvan Reservoir Park in Silvan, then explore a series of roving sessions through stunning nearby locations, including Olinda Falls and the Olinda Botanic Gardens. Our program will conclude at the serene Sassafras Creek Reserve, giving families a final opportunity to reconnect with nature before the last session.
