About this event

Bush School is a casual, community-based program that allows children to learn about and experience nature. For families with limited outdoor areas, it can offer a wide range of benefits. Children can:

– Learn about changes in seasons, light, weather, wildlife, plants and trees
– Appreciate biodiversity – including insects, plants and animals
– Develop a sense of space and learn about Aboriginal values towards the land
– Get a sense of caring for our natural environment
– Help develop physical skills, communication, observation, social skills, creativity, teamwork, emotional well-being and self-esteem
