Palms: October Nature Walk

A short walk through the botanical gardens learning about palm trees.

 

A short walk through the botanical gardens learning about palm trees.

  • Come and join us exploring nature together! As part of our series of walks about Australian trees, we're going to be wandering through the Botanical Gardens learning about palm trees.

    We will meet outside the botanical gardens cafe, and walk through the tropical shade garden beside the office, and then further to the bird hide. The path is wheelchair and pram accessible.

    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.

    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.
