What would a flying fox, a shorebird, an endangered moth and a crayfish say, if they had a meeting with humans, to discuss their needs and the humans' development plans?
We are keen to find out and need your help!
Join this unique 2 day workshop for children and young people, where they'll learn to find and use their voice for nature.
Author and educator Dr Sarah Pye will take young environmental leaders on a journey of civics and decision making - beyond the human world. Participants will investigate a hypothetical issue then get into character, make costumes, discuss and debate, and ultimately decide through a 'parliament of animals'.
This workshop will be fun and informative, and requires attendance for both:
Part 1 on Tuesday 13th January
Part 2 on Tuesday 20th January
Suitable for ages 10 - 15yrs. Participation is $10 total. Registrations essential.
Held upstairs in the Rainforest Discovery Centre at Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve.
