An international conference that gathers passionate play professionals from all around the world – what’s not to love about that concept? The prospect of being part of this global network and world-wide conversation on play was one we couldn’t pass up, and being provided the opportunity to present two workshops at the conference made the…
I’m incredibly humbled and honoured to have been named one of the 40 Under 40 for 2023 last Friday evening. A joyous moment for me as a business leader and entrepreneur, but more specifically a special moment to recognise the incredible journey that Educated by Nature has been on over the last 9 years.
A return to the old boat shed space, with a difference! Presented with the provocation of being early settlers on their way to Western Australia, the year 4 students at Guildford Grammar found themselves confronted by a new land and new experiences at Bush School today. We asked the students to imagine they were getting…
As Nature Connection Mentors a lot of our time is spent barefoot. In fact, any chance we get to kick off our shoes, whether it be at our school holiday program (a whole day outside), our afterschool sessions or our school-based incursions, we try to find time to be truly connected to the earth under…
Today was a milestone day for our humble social enterprise. It was a day that highlighted the growth we have experienced over the last seven years and offered a glimpse into the future of the sustainable, team-driven, collaborative and community-minded organisation that we strive to be.
Another instalment of Educated by Nature Sing-a-long! This is a song very dear to our hearts. It was written by one of our dear friends (and original Educated by Nature team member, Jessica Taylor) and was a huge hit at our Mud Pies Nature Playgroups. It’s now a song that is adored by Daniel’s nieces…
This song is one I learnt during my time at the Art of Mentoring Camp in California in 2016 (and 2017). The song, When I Was Young, was sung in a gathering to send the teens off on their overnight rites of passage trek. The whole community (300 people) gathered around these teens and wished…
Daniel sings another song from our Mud Pies Nature Playgroup days and one we sing at many of our school incursions: ‘It’s Good to See You’ by Don Williams. This is a wonderful song to welcome people together, create a sense of community and connect a group through the power of song!
Daniel’s at it again! This time it’s the Bear Song, another hit from our days of running KIN Village Junior (our program for 4 – 7 year olds and their parents). It’s a wonderful song that would get the whole group singing call and response. So much fun!
