Kids Bushcraft Skills

We run a full day Friday Forest Program at the Tapiola Outdoor Education Centre.  In the afternoons, from 1:30 to 3pm our Program has a dedicated bushcraft activity / skill. We open up this portion of the day to families that want to drop in to participate in this portion of our Forest School program.  While geared towards kids 7-12, all ages and families welcome, however, spots are limited based on the activity. Our Forest School program kids take up the initial spots, and any remaining drop in capacity is noted on the event pages below. 

The best way to guarantee a spot for your child is to register for the full day program.

More information can be found below, including the Spring term schedule, and FAQs.   There is no cost to participate, but any donation or other contribution is welcome.

If your desired program is full, sign up for waitlist and we will contact you if a spot opens up.
