This incursion emphasises sustainability by blending up-cycling techniques and bushcraft skills, empowering children to undertake new projects using natural materials and repurposed, found, or discarded items.
By utilising natural materials, kids learn about the useful properties of various plants, trees, and minerals still relevant today. Up-cycling found objects offers them a perspective on our throw-away culture, encouraging them to think about using existing resources instead of generating new waste.
Teamwork is a key component, as children work in small groups to design, problem-solve, and build shelters using a combination of natural and recycled materials.
Highlights
- Hands on workshop using recycled and natural materials
- Children develop an understanding of sustainable practices
