Nature Connection Series: Respect for Nature

“…helps me to realise what we’ve got, what nature has.” – Student

One of Educated by Nature’s core values is respect for the environment. When we help children and adults see, interact and learn about the world around them they naturally want to care for it. Their eyes are opened to the millions of plants and animals that share the world with them and once you see them it’s very hard to go back to a place of ignorance. As Maya Angelou said, ”When you know better, you do better”

This video captures the essence of our Nature Connection Series, an 8-week, immersive program delivered by Educated by Nature with the aim of supporting teachers to see the potential of local bushland and nearby outdoor spaces, engaging students Deep Nature Connection. This project was made possible through a partnership between Educated by Nature and WA Parks Foundation, supported by Australian Gas Infrastructure Group.
