Description
Step into the wild and discover the magic of nature at our Forest School Rewilding School Holiday Workshop! Designed especially for children, this immersive outdoor experience invites young adventurers to reconnect with the natural world through hands-on learning, creativity, and teamwork. Located in South Morang, 20 km north-east of Melbourne at Plenty Gorge Park. Plenty Gorge Park is a magnificent natural haven, where rugged bushland, winding trails, and dramatic gorge views come together to create one of Melbourne’s most breathtaking outdoor escapes.
Through bushcraft, nature-based games, tool use, and creative construction, your child will enjoy a fun-filled day of real-world learning — no Wi-Fi required.
Let them discover the joy of mud on their boots, leaves in their hair, and the freedom to roam wild.
In this workshop, children will:
-

Our team of highly experienced Forest School educators will guide and support your child’s learning journey, helping them grow into confident, curious, and capable young explorers. Through hands-on experiences, children are taught how to assess and take safe, age-appropriate risks in the bush. Along the way, they’ll deepen their understanding of the natural environment and discover the wonders of native wildlife in a way that is both meaningful and memorable.
The forest school is held at Westerfolds Park in Templestowe and led by Adam.
Adam is the founder of Eco Explorers and has been delivering bush programs to families for over two years. He spent his entire childhood living and camping in the bush; climbing mountains, exploring rivers, learning to fish, track, make fires and to survive. He is also a forest school leader and has a background in Outdoor Education.
Forest school Melbourne is an all-weather outdoor program so you need to make sure you bring appropriate weather protection and clothing. Our program will only be cancelled in the event of an extreme weather warning; fire, storm, high temperatures and severe wind.
