What to Expect?
Why is knot-tying a vital survival skill? Knot-tying is a practical skill that enhances children’s everyday lives, whether they’re securing objects, working on DIY projects, or building confidence in solving problems. It fosters a sense of accomplishment, empowering them to face challenges, reinforcing independence and resourcefulness.
This programme helps develop our child’s focus and perseverance through activities like knot-tying, structure setup, and shelter-building. Under the watchful eye of trained instructors, children also get plenty of “risky play” opportunities which allow young adventurers to discover their role in nature & lead their own explorations safely.
