Bush Buddies is a fun after-school nature group for children aged 5–12 who are interested in nature.

Held on Wednesdays during the school term, each session begins at the Mount Pleasant Environment Centre, located inside Recreate. Children will enjoy a fruit snack and share what they have noticed in nature during the past week before taking part in a nature-based activity.

Each week will offer something different. Some sessions will build on previous activities, while others will stand alone. Sessions may be held indoors or outdoors, and occasionally the group will walk across Melrose Street to explore the River Torrens.
