Change a Child's Life and Help Save Nature

LEARNERS ARE LOVING THE ENVIRONMENTAL CAMPS

Here is a summary of what they learn:

WATER STUDY

• Learners are taught how using macro invertebrates (tiny water organisms that can be seen with the naked eye such as such as flatworms, snails, dragonflies and more) from the stream can determine the water quality.
• Stories focusing on the river resources we utilize, learners do their own creative writing exercise.
• Common water is a game that looks at how water usage has changed overtime including the introduction of agriculture.

EXPLORING THE ENVIRONMENT

• The obstacle course is a variety of fun obstacles in the bush that the teams are encouraged to complete by working together. Learners sometimes need to face their fears and move out of their comfort zones to win as a team.
• Orienteering is an opportunity for learners to work as a team, explore their surroundings, learn basic map reading skills and embrace consequences of their decisions.

CREATING WITH NATURE

• Environmental art gets learners to work together in small groups to create an art piece using natural resources found on site whilst exploring the textures and colours of the natural world. This art piece is designed to reflect each member in the group.
• Nature mobiles are using natural resources found during their hike, when learners return to camp they make their own natural mobile reflecting on their time on camp.

A FUTURE GENERATION WHO LOVE AND UNDERSTAND NATURE

This program gives donors a real opportunity to make grass routes changes in young people, giving them a chance to really understand the environment, their impact and what they can do to preserve our planet.
 
Although this is a life changing experience for our youth it also means a better environment for us all.
