Nature School provides an opportunity for home school families to add nature play, outdoor skills, sustainability and environmental awareness in their learning activities. The Nature School program is run by experienced environmental educators, with content linked to NSW Science and Technology and Geography syllabus as well as links to the cross curriculum priority of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander knowledge.

Activities range from storytelling, fauna encounters, exploring urban bushlands and child led independent play with a focus on developing self-confidence, problem solving skills and risk management in an outdoor environment.
