KIN Afterschool is a space where primary aged children can experiment, create and play with natural resources in a fun after school activity.

The sessions are led by passionate Nature Playworkers and feature opportunities to learn new skills, such as carpentry and knot tying, as well as playing nature connection games.

A major part of the program is developing self-risk assessment skills. To help build resilience, we allow safe and healthy risk taking. Our Playworkers support children to identify hazards and develop body awareness.

Term Three is a crowd and staff favourite - fire! This term centres on learning to create, care for, and cook with fire. When founded on the three pillars of respect (respect for self, others, and the environment), teaching fire provides a fantastic catalyst for the development of perseverance, patience, teamwork, nature connection, responsibility, community and survival skills. We are always delighted to watch the confidence and maturity of the group grow across the term, as they develop into capable ‘fire keepers’, mentors and cooks.

Please note, children must have turned 6 to attend KIN Afterschool.
