Back to the Outback

Nick the Stockman

Sydney & Surrounds

Outback Farm experience with a real Stockman!

Nick the Stockman and his faithful canine companion, Belle, are ready to visit your centre to teach your kids about life on a farm in the outback.

This 90-minute experience gives your children the chance to learn about the farm and learn about making fresh damper made on-site in your location over a fire plus watch an amazing whip cracking and boomerang demonstration.

Once kids learn the special art of whip cracking all the children – and educators  then have the option to try for themselves from an expert with 15 years of teaching experience.

Finally, they will finish up by enjoying the freshly made  damper they made at the beginning of the show.

Highlights

  • Children will have the opportunity to sample real Billy Tea and Damper
  • Watch Whip Cracking and gain insight for what it is used for on the farm
  • Learn to throw a Boomerang and what they still use them for today
  • A great Aussie hands on experience!

What's Included?

We had Nick and Skye visit out centre today for an incursion, we were so impressed with how much fun and engaged the children were throughout the whole session! Nick was awesome with the children and we loved his companion Skye! Highly recommend, all our children cannot wait for another visit already :)
