That moment when you realise your more airborne than you anticipated 😜 Learning how high one can jump requires some considered risk taking 👌Centre for Ecological Learning Camp Creative Bellingen

Loose parts play is the way 😎 Join the movement and watch the magic as children are challenged and empowered to get creative! Our week at Camp Creative was full of loose parts and the feedback we received was so overwhelmingly positive! Apparently the children had the best day EVER everyday!!! I was in awe and so inspired by their ideas that I didn’t want the day to end! If only schools valued play as much as children do! For them it is as important as breathing!

🍃Fostering nature connection among children calls for intentions to be set and a sense of wonder employed. It also helps if you fall in love with a space 💚
Sharing the sacredness of the Kalang River is easy for me, I am so lucky to be able to work and play in this amazingly beautiful place 😍

The river is still under threat due to logging and needs as much love and support as you can give! Visit Bellingen Environment Centre to learn more about how to 🙏💙
