We, as humans, have learnt a lot from these remarkable feathered animals. We must credit them for advancements made in flight, high-speed trains and drones. They also do a lot for our natural ecosystems – which in turn benefits us. They are pollinators, seed disperses and natural pest controllers amongst other things. Moreover, they are beautiful to watch and to listen too. It stands to reason then that we should take the time to get to know them and encourage that interest and appreciation in our children.

Even if there is a fear factor, few things are as fascinating to a child as creepy crawlies; spiders, millipeds and even scorpions, there are just so many out there and each one has its own awesome characteristics.

Young explorers will embark on an exciting journey to discover how rocks are formed and the amazing processes of the Earth. They will learn all about the different types of rocks found in the Reserve’s natural landscape on our Nature Walk and through fun, hands-on activities like creating a scientific rock collection and making cookies that represent the rock cycle.
This outing blends education, outdoor exploration, and creativity — perfect for curious minds who love nature and science. Children will leave with new knowledge, a collection of their own, and a tasty treat that makes geology deliciously fun!
