Bush School is an outdoor program and will take place in all-weather except for high winds. It is recommended children wear old clothes and gumboots. A spare change of clothes is advised. Participants (adults and children) are expected to dress for the outdoors, including bringing wet weather gear, a hat, sturdy enclosed shoes and waterproof footwear when required.
Our Bush School is a uniquely Australian program based on international best practice in Nature Pedagogy. It is a child-led nature play program which uses a nature connection mentoring approach to foster natural curiosity.
