GROW NATURAL LEARNING

Grow Wild (Wednesdays) (5+)

Will bring together mixed ages (5+) and genders for a day of nature focused story, games, crafts, adventure and culture building. We will weave in intentional ecological learning opportunities; however, we will allow the seasons, weather, energy of the day and the kids' interests to guide us as we build connection and empower the kids with the skills and knowledge needed to engage and connect with each other and the natural world.

Although it will depend on the ages and dynamics of the group that signs up; we will have together time (especially to begin with and close off) but also create smaller adventure/learning groups to help meet the needs and desires of the kids (at different times this might be dependent on age, gender or interest on the day). With the bush, river and ocean as our learning space and playground we will have lots of options, and we will bring craft and learning materials to help us better know our place and how we can interact with it as a wild and wise human. The science and magic of our natural world will definitely be explored.

The days will look something like this:

• All gather with music

• All play a game or two

• Check-in in smaller groups

• Go on adventures with games, challenges, learning activities etc woven in

• Have lunch together if it works

• Storytime for the whole group

• Free flow afternoons of bushcraft, ecology study, games, play etc

• Closing circle together
