Wetland Adventure Day 🌿💧

Thursday 8th October | 9:00am–1:00pm | Marrambidya Wetlands, Wagga Wagga

Get ready for a wild morning of exploring, creating and getting hands-on with the natural world at Marrambidya Wetlands!

Our Wetland Adventure Day is an opportunity for children to slow down, get curious and discover the unique plants, animals and landscapes of the wetlands. With plenty of time for child-led exploration, children will be encouraged to follow their interests, take supported risks and have a go at new skills.

Throughout the morning, children will be invited to:

🌿 Explore the wetlands – wander, investigate and discover what makes this special environment home to so many plants and animals.

🪵 Use hand tools – learn and practise using age-appropriate tools, including whittling, with guidance and supervision.

🏕️ Build & create – design and construct shelters using natural materials and loose parts, working together or independently.

🎨 Make with nature – experiment with natural materials and create inspired by the colours, textures and patterns found around the wetlands.

🦎 Look closely & get curious – notice the small details, search for signs of wildlife and see what we can discover along the way.

🌳 Move, climb & play – enjoy opportunities for physical challenge, climbing and plenty of open-ended outdoor play.

There’s no set outcome and no expectation to do everything. Children can choose where their curiosity takes them, with opportunities to build confidence, independence, creativity and connection with nature.

What to bring:

Packed lunch
Plenty of water
Hat and sunscreen
Sturdy, closed-in shoes
Weather-appropriate clothing
Clothes that can get dirty!

Ages: 3–12 years
Time: 9:00am–1:00pm
Location: Marrambidya Wetlands, Wagga Wagga

Come ready to explore, get muddy, build something brilliant and discover the wild side of the wetlands. 🌱💧
