About this event

We are celebrating Wombats this week, for international wombat day. Come along to learn all about these burrowing Australian native marsupials.

Our Nature Play programs offer weekly nature-themed activities, designed to develop curious minds and playful spirits. Sessions run from 10.00am – 11.30am. They involve a fun morning of play-based investigation and discovery in nature led by our experienced Environmental Ranger.

Activities cost $20 per child with one parent/carer admitted free of charge.

Benefits of Nature Play

Nature play significantly improves all aspects of early childhood development – physical, cognitive, social and emotional. Playing outdoors in nature grows resilience, self-confidence, initiative and gross-motor skills.

Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden

Set on 154 hectares of urban Sydney Sandstone bushland at St Ives and adjacent to Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park, Ku-ring-gai Wildflower Garden boasts some of Sydney’s best Wildflower trails, Duffys Forrest and Coastal Upland Swamp as well as 18 threatened species of Australian Flora and Fauna and 2 endangered ecological communities providing learning experiences in the natural environment.
