Fledglings & Natural Journeys - Term 4
Full Day Nature Immersion for 3-5 and 5-12 year olds
Places Available
What to expect
FLEDGLINGS - suitable for children aged 3 to 5 years, catering specifically to the needs of children who are embarking on their independent journey away from their parents. NATURAL JOURNEYS - caters for young people, aged 5-12yrs, from various educational backgrounds. This program is most suitable for children who homeschool. Both programs share space and integrate with each other throughout the day, reconnecting children to an ancestral way of being, and representing the social values embedded within indigenous communities around the world. While we have a foundational program of offerings, each session is democratically led by the children. Our days are intentionally very fluid and slow, allowing each child's advancing skill levels and particular interests to emerge. Your child is gently guided as they take considered risks and challenge themselves to engage in holistic learning and development. Stories are told, knowledge shared, songs sung, all in the context of play and an unhurried childhood. At times, the Natural Journeys children may adventure further beyond Base Camp and explore more advanced skills. Some possible activities might include shelter-building, tools, bushcraft, environmental work, fire, or seasonal observations. All our programs are guided by experienced mentors with qualifications and backgrounds in a range of relevant fields, including Education, Forest School Leadership, Bushcraft, Wilderness Survival, Deep Nature Connection, First Aid and Child Safe Practices. Our programs are held outdoors in all-weather so please make sure you bring appropriate protective clothing, wet weather gear, hats, and sunscreen.
