Join a special Bush Kindy celebrating Grandparents Day! This event is designed for children aged 3-5 years, along with their grandparents, parents, and carers. Immerse yourselves in the natural surroundings of Boondall Wetlands as children build nature confidence and respect for the environment.
Enjoy bushwalks, exploration, story-time, art 'n' craft activities, and much more in a relaxed, outdoor setting. Each session lasts about 45 minutes and continues in light rain, making it a wonderful way to connect with nature regardless of the weather.
Bush Kindy sessions vary weekly in themes and activities, ensuring a fresh and engaging experience each time. This event is open to the general public, with a maximum of 5 tickets per booking to keep the group intimate and manageable.
A ratio of one adult per four children is required, and all attendees, including infants, must have a ticket. Please arrive at least 10 minutes early to check in with staff at the centre. The event is suitable for preschool-aged children and encourages messy play, so old clothes are recommended.
The event takes place at the Boondall Wetlands Environment Centre, located at 31 Paperbark Drive (entry via Stanworth Rd), Boondall. This park venue offers a beautiful natural environment perfect for young children to explore and learn about wildlife and plants.
There are no food outlets on site, so bringing water and snacks is advised. The centre is accessible and family-friendly, providing a safe space for children to enjoy the outdoors under adult supervision.
All children must be accompanied and directly supervised by an adult throughout the event. Please wear a hat, sun-safe clothing, fully enclosed walking shoes (no thongs or open shoes), sunscreen, and bring insect repellent.
The event will proceed in light rain but may be cancelled due to severe weather or environmental conditions. If you cannot attend, please cancel your booking via Eventbrite to allow others to participate.
Late arrivals may forfeit their tickets to accommodate other attendees, so punctuality is important.
This event is free of charge but requires booking through Eventbrite due to limited places. Tickets are capped at five per booking to maintain a safe and engaging group size.
