Information
Aliannah Earth School is offering a one day a week forest school program in Sooke/T'souke starting this fall, and we are excited to bring your family with us this magical nature connection adventure.
This forest school program in Sooke will entail providing a safe and enlivening container for the children to step into self empowerment through community, the village of other children and adult mentors. We guide adventures into nature connection based off the seasons and Earth's rhythms through stories, art, bush-crafting, learning about foraged plants and garden foods and playing fun games.
We tailor our programs according to what the kids needs are and guide them with culture and encouragement. The days might be chilly, rainy or sunny, but always filled with love, nature adventures and group cooked/foraged meal around a fire at lunch to warm the heart and friendships to warm the soul.
This program centres around creating connection with the plants, animals and elements of the Pacific North West, T'souke River, the Pacific Ocean, and a local garden by the river- abundant with organic vegetables and trees.
Fee includes all bushcrafting supples, art and stationary supplies, and healthy snacks that we will cook to encourage healthy communal eating.
What to Wear:
Please wear appropriate weather outdoor gear, rain boots, warm/wool socks and rain coat .
What to Pack:
Extra clothes
AND
Even though we will provide a snack/warm meal at lunch, we will also ask you to bring daily: a packed lunch, snacks and water that your child will eat, until we get to know everyones palates and can have lunch fully offered by us!
AND
Optional- If your child also desires, they may bring a stuffed animal and personal note pad/pen. We will also provide stationary materials daily.
