KIN Village for Teens

About this event

KIN VILLAGE - Spring KIN Village for Teens is a ‘drop and leave’ school holiday program for 12-15 year olds, that allows older children to freely explore their world and community with the support of Nature Educators and Mentors. Each session runs from 9am to 4pm and costs $125 per child. We have an average staff to child ratio of 1:8. All staff have a Working with Children Check, with at least two staff at each session being first aid trained and at least one with water rescue qualifications (where applicable). These holidays, for KIN Village Spring, we will be focusing on cubbies and contraptions! No two days at KIN Village are the same, but typically this involves learning tool and knot tying skills to build everything from zip lines to fairy gardens. Our Nature Educators resource the space with objects and tools children might need to live out their adventure. They provide mentoring that observes and listens to children in order to guide suggestions, resources and skill building to help them achieve their goals. The program is designed to follow children’s natural energy levels throughout the day so that children work as a team without feeling forced or held back. Children feel they are truly heard and acknowledged and are therefore more open to be guided into nature connection by our mentors. Sessions are also running for 6-12 year olds, details on our website. --- Click HERE to access our Bookings Terms and Conditions.
