Discover Bushcraft Holiday Club is a brand new initiative. Designed and delivered by Helen Payne and her team; its aim is to provide fun, educational and inspiring outdoor based activity days for children. Helen has delivered many different programmes whilst being employed by others; Discover Bushcraft is her own creation.
Discover Bushcraft Holiday club is all about being in the outdoors and nature and unleashing the ‘wild imp’ that’s in us all!
Saying that we don’t expect every child to want to get muddy from head to toe, so we make sure that we
include nature art and crafts, camp fire cooking and other bushcraft / field craft skills in our programme.
Tues 31st May, Weds 1st June, Thurs 2nd June, Fri 3rd June
10.00am – 3.30pm
For children aged 8 – 12 years
Based in the Conservation Garden in Thaxted
This Holiday Club runs for four days, you can book your child / children on any or all of
the days. Each day is different (there is some progression in skills development through
the programme – but each day can be stand alone) and will always include:
• some element of bushcraft (tracking, fire lighting, shelter building for example),
• nature immersion (stream walking, tree identification, hedgehog box building),
• wide games (capture the flag, Discover Bushcraft’s version of Hunger Games!)
• campfire cooking (we have a campfire each day and toast marshmallows and other delights!)
• imagination and storytelling (we have a professional storyteller as part of our team and we
aim to engage and stimulate the imagination throughout the week.)
