Where: Green Connect Farm, 6 Anna Avenue, Warrawong Time: 9:00-11:00am Dates: Thursdays in the school term. See dates below.
Welcome to Bush Kindy at the Green Connect Farm! There's no better teacher than nature, and no better classroom than the great outdoors!
Join us at the Farm each Thursday from 9am-11am for a wonderful morning of nature-based learning and play. Each week we'll facilitate activities based around a theme, like birds, bees, trees, soil or worms. There'll be a big focus on using natural materials to understand the world around us. We'll build, draw, make and create, as well as get dirty and immerse ourselves in the great outdoors. In addition to weekly facilitated activities, there'll be plenty of time for free-play in our children's garden, including our sandpit and mudpit, to meet the farm animals and explore the farm. Bush Kindy is aimed at children aged 2-5 years. Younger children are welcome to join, however please be aware that activities may be aimed at slightly older children. Children under 12 months are free with a ticket-holding sibling, however if you are bringing a baby without an older child you must purchase a ticket for them. Bush Kindy runs on Thursdays throughout the school terms. We go ahead in all weather, unless it is dangerous to do so. Come prepared for the weather and prepared to get dirty! -
