Holiday Program: Mangrove Mindfulness

Discover the magic of mangroves at this special workshop for children at the Maroochy Wetlands Sanctuary.

Learn the wilderness awareness skill of Sit Spot - a place to deeply observe the natural world and all it’s wonderful happenings. At the Wetland Sanctuary you will notice you are surrounded by mangroves – the roots of the sea!

We will learn about different species and then have a go at illustrating the mangrove above the waterline, then imagine and draw the root system, and ecosystem that surrounds them, below the waterline.

Participants need to bring: water, hat, insect repellent for those susceptible to bites + morning tea for afterwards.

Suitable ages: 5+ years

All materials provided.

Facilitated by Lana Baskerville from Natureweavers.
