Description
Our vision at Bush Buddies Playgroup is to provide an environment that allows children and their families to explore and connect with nature, the seasons and other families in their local community on a regular basis. With the increased use of technology by children and the subsequent increase in the amount of time our children spend indoors, there has been a decline in the amount of opportunity children have to explore and experience the outdoor environment. Being in the outdoors and being a part of nature activity programs is known to have numerous health and wellbeing, social and emotional, and physical development benefits. During Bush Playgroup sessions climbing, running, rolling and balancing will all be available to children, with support and guidance as is deemed necessary for safety. Play in the natural environment does involve risks. These risks can be managed and need to be weighed up against the plethora of health and wellbeing benefits for children, their families and communities. Cost: $5 per child or $10 for a family.
