🌿 Celebrate in nature with us 🌿

Named after the iconic Australian Banksia, this group symbolises resilience, growth, and a deep connection to nature. Like the Banksia, which thrives in tough conditions and grows strong roots, our children are building strength, exploring their potential, and developing their unique, vibrant connection with the natural world. 🌱

✨ Here’s what they’ll experience:

🧗‍♀️ Nature Play & Adventure: Explore the outdoors with hands-on activities like slack lines, pulleys, and monkey swings—helping develop strength, balance, and teamwork.
🌳 Bush Walks & Exploration: Wander through the park, discovering new plants, animals, and seasonal changes, encouraging curiosity and connection to the environment.
🎨 Crafting & Nature Art: Use materials found in nature to create art, from leaf rubbings to building structures with sticks—perfect for nurturing creativity.
🌾 Free Play in Nature: Plenty of time for free play, where children are encouraged to explore their environment independently, guided by the natural flow of their curiosity.
👩‍🏫 Facilitated by a qualified educator: While the children are free to explore, your facilitator Emma is there to guide, support, and inspire, ensuring a safe, enriching environment for all.
🌱 Seasonal Learning: Activities that follow the rhythms of the seasons, teaching children about growth cycles, weather patterns, and the interconnectedness of nature.

💚 Wild Folk Banksias is all about nurturing growth, resilience, and a deep connection to the natural world, empowering children to explore, create, and thrive in nature. 🌟
