Our Everyone Out programme is based at Belmont Scout Hall and surrounding recreation reserve starting again SOON!
Our base at the Scout Hall is surrounded by Belmont recreation reserve which is perfect for adventure and discovery, with bush, gardens, mature trees and a large open grass spaces. The environment and our equipment is rich with opportunities for free play, self-directed learning, and hands-on experiences. We will take spontaneous excursions in the surrounding area to deepen children’s understanding of the natural world. The immediate area has numerous opportunities for tamariki to explore different environments including the Hutt River and Pareraho Forest.
Each session is child-led, allowing tamariki to follow their interests in a supportive and enriching environment. Possible things your child may do or learn include:
- Exploring the area and its diverse plant and animal life
- Flexing gross motor skills and improving physical competence by climbing, running, jumping, balancing and swinging
- Building shelters, using ropes and creating imaginative play spaces
- Engaging in arts using natural and recycled materials, valuing process over product
- Storytelling, drama, and having a safe space to express themself
- Taking a quiet moments with books, laying in a hammock or chilling in a tent
- Learning how to use tools and kept themselves safe around fire
- Making and cooking kai (food) over a camp fire
Our programme is led by experienced kaiako (teachers) who are passionate about outdoor learning and child-led exploration. Our staff are skilled in fostering curiosity, developing teamwork, and ensuring a safe and engaging environment for all tamariki.
We look forward to welcoming your tamariki to Everyone Out, where they can immerse themselves in adventure, play, and discovery!
