Experience Learning Outside the Classroom

 

At Native Oz Bushfoods, we offer an immersive educational experience that takes students out of the classroom and onto our farm to connect with the rich heritage and natural flavours of native Australia. Our school excursions provide a unique opportunity for hands-on learning, where students can touch, taste, and explore the diverse range of native bush fruits and plants.

During the excursion, students will:

Engage with Nature: Step into the heart of our native food garden and experience the beauty of Australia's unique flora. Students will have the chance to see, touch, and learn about various native plants and fruits.

Taste Native Flavours: Discover the distinct and delicious flavors of native Australian fruits. Students will have the opportunity to taste fresh, seasonal produce directly from our farm.

Interactive Learning: Participate in guided tours and interactive activities that teach the importance of native plants in Aboriginal culture, sustainable farming practices, and the nutritional benefits of native foods.

Hands-On Experience: Get involved in practical activities such as planting, harvesting, and preparing native foods. This hands-on approach helps students gain a deeper understanding and appreciation of where their food comes from.

Cultural Learning: Immerse in the rich Aboriginal heritage through stories, traditional practices, and cultural insights shared throughout the tour.
