🌿 Bush School days with Rod 🌿
Have you met Rod? With his calm nature, incredible outdoor knowledge, practical skills, and ability to make every child feel capable, included, and excited to give new things a go, he’s fast become a valuable part of our program.
Every Thursday, Rod brings a whole lot of adventure, creativity, and hands-on learning to the bush. With over 20 years as a Scout Leader, including time as a Group Leader, he knows exactly how to help kids build confidence, resilience, teamwork, and independence through real outdoor experiences.
Bush School days with Rod are never spent sitting still. One week the children might be designing and building rafts for the creek, the next they’re creating catapults, constructing shelters, or learning practical bush skills through play and exploration.
Recently, the group worked together to build their own creek nets before heading into the water to carefully catch and observe creek creatures. The children then created small habitats using natural materials, learning about ecosystems, teamwork, problem solving, and caring for the environment along the way.
It’s the kind of learning children carry with them beyond the bush, opportunities to take safe risks, solve problems, work together, and grow in confidence through meaningful outdoor experiences and adventure.
Thursdays are all about exploring, creating, experimenting, and discovering what’s possible outdoors.
