Come and join us exploring nature together! We'll be learning about tree hollows and all the animals and birds in Australia that make use of hollows for their homes.
If you have other interesting abandoned animal homes that you've collected please bring them along - old bird nests, green ant nests, etc.
The walk along the bucasia esplanade is on a paved path and wheelchair and pram friendly. We will walk approx 2km, looking for hollows and nesting birds in the trees.
We will be doing some nature journaling together - where we draw or write about what we saw. We encourage parents to get a nature journal as well and learn alongside your children.
Afterwards, we enjoy lunch together and have time to play. Stay for as long as you like, or head off to after school sports and activities.
What to bring:
Sunhat, sunscreen
Bottle of water
Lunch/Snacks
Nature journal (A5 blank page book)
Pencil
Optional:
Watercolour pencils or paint
Small paintbrush
Please take a look through our community values and chat with your children about these before the walk.
Parents are responsible for the safety of their own children, and need to be present with their children during this activity.
Nature walks are usually held on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month, except during school holidays. They follow a pattern of a short presentation, walk to observe nature, journaling, and then meal and free play.
