What to Expect?

We all know trees provide shade in the forest, but their importance goes way beyond that! Let our junior explorers learn how to coexist with nature’s rich biodiversity and discover their role in nature by leading their own explorations.

This programme is great for developing our child’s higher cognitive functions like focus and perseverance, using a series of activities like knot-tying, setting up structures and shelter-building when outdoors. Under the watchful eye of trained instructors, children also get plenty of “risky play” opportunities which allow young adventurers to discover & learn safely.
