Wild 2 - HUNTER GATHERER

We practice skills used daily by ancestral people from all over the world.
Spear making and throwing, Basic wild food foraging, Traditional hunting techniques, trapping and animal tracking methods, Set traps in an attempt to catch fish, eel's and yabbies and then release them back into the river, Look at traps, snares and a range of traditional weapons used worldwide by our ancestors, Nature connection and sensory awareness games
A big part of Wild 2 is our spear making activity, your child will be given a comprehensive knife safety lesson. they will then with assistance harvest, de-bark, sharpen and then fire harden their very own spear to keep (if it's ok with parents that is ;))
*No live traps other than catch and release fish traps are used during the day, so no harm whatsoever is done to local fauna.
Suitable for kids aged 7-14 years.
Wild 3 - ORIEENTERING AND LEAP OF FAITH
We spend the morning learning how to navigate using a map and compass and then trying our newly learnt skills searching for checkpoints on the new Rewild Orienteering course.
In the afternoon we face our fears by tackling the Leap of Faith. A High ropes activity where the kids attempt to climb up a ladder then onto the tree to a platform 8m off the ground. They then take a "leap of faith" out of the tree in an attempt to catch a trapeze bar suspended in front of them. Multiple attempts allow for a soothing gradual progression to take place and for confidence in the safety system to be developed.
These are kids only events. Drop off at 9 am and pick up at 3 pm.
