Going Wild – TimberNook Southern Sydney (Casual Visit Thursday 28/9/23)

GOING WILD – School Holiday Program (Thursday 28th September 2023)

Did you know that in Aboriginal mythology it is believed that when you see a rainbow in the sky this is actually the Rainbow Serpent making its way from one waterhole to another? This spring school holidays we will be exploring the dreamtime story of the Rainbow Serpent. As the weather warms up we will be celebrating the creator and protector of water, noticing all that is shedding and the rebirth during this wonderful season.

Experience may include:

• Bush Walk to George’s River for the ultimate natural water play. (Please pack appropriate change of clothes and walking shoes).
• A giant real life creation of the rainbow snake as we make some fun with colourful Holi powder. (Pack a white shirt if you wish).
• Rainbow Snake inspired Nature Crafts
• Campfire snack

This classic TimberNook program is for children (3-12 years) who enjoy taking play to a whole new level through collaborative, creative, and sensory-immersive experiences with friends new and old.  We guarantee days full of adventure, mindfulness, games, and surprises!

School Holidays will see children creating long lasting connections and memories of being in the bush during this 5 hour drop-off program. There may be opportunities for children to participate in adventurous quests for lost treasure, to design their own large-scale obstacle courses or to take on roles of other eras or magical worlds. The curriculum is tailored to promote the ultimate test to gross motor and fine motor skill, whilst challenging the mind to solve problems or craft use of raw materials when in construction mode. With dramatic play anticipated, children will be encouraged to define their own rules, communicate their own boundaries, focus on teamwork and strategy.

Children will have opportunities to dive deep into play involving natural elements to build lifelong love of being outdoors. Children may participate in bush-cooking, bush-walking or bush-crafting during their visit to TimberNook Southern Sydney.
