Early Childhood Outdoor Learning Network Training Package

ECO Learning Network Training Package

We are proud to partner with Early Childhood Outdoor Learning Network to host a series of training packages.

This training has been designed to assist teachers and educators who are interested in taking children into nature or who are looking for support to strengthen their existing programs. Presented by leaders and pioneers in the field of Australian early childhood nature programs - the program is held over 3 sessions, including a site visit to a nature kindergarten in action.

The package includes:

1. Half day workshop that covers the framework requirements as well as the Nuts and Bolts of creating an outdoor program.
2. One site visit where participants have the opportunity to view children interacting within the outdoor space (for an extra fee participants can visit other site).
3. After the site visits a second workshop is planned to reflect on what has been observed and then begin planning for the next steps of taking children into nature.
