ReWild Your Family – Westerfolds Park

  •  15/04/2023
     10:00 am - 1:00 pm

It’s time for families to get back some WILD time! Do you have a deep longing to create life-long memories, spend quality time and most importantly connect with your family outdoors?

Our ReWild Your Family program is a weekend outdoor gathering, aimed to get families out into the bush to learn various bushcraft and bush survival skills that will inspire them to spend more time outdoors. This is for families who are passionate about what we do and want to learn the skills themselves. Whether you love camping or are a complete newbie, perhaps you are planning a big trip with your kids, or simply want to bring back some traditional hands-on learning and deep nature connection with your child. Our ReWild Your Family is for you!

We’ll be doing a good hour walk around Westerfolds Park learning about the local flora and fauna. You will learn essential bush skills for survival such as how to stay safe and navigate in the bush, track and identify wildlife, know what to do if you see a snake,  identify bush foods, enjoy some bush tucker, use tools and for this special family workshop, make stick frames with a photo for you to take home. Plus we’ll have some bush tea for you all to enjoy!

Our ReWild Your Family program is a unique opportunity for you to visit some of Melbourne’s best National Parks.

We provide a range of outdoor equipment such as magnifying glasses, tools, compasses, binoculars, maps and field guides for you to use with your child, as well as bush tea and wattle seed muffins for morning tea.

Our ReWild Your Family program is run by Emma who has a Master of Environment, specialising in ‘conservation and restoration’.

Ages: 5 years +
