Nature Nurture
Nature Nurture - transformative experiences
At The Ecology Centre we believe in nature as a powerful tool to improve the lives of young people facing challenges and disadvantage.
​
Our education team are experienced in delivering child centred nature nurture sessions and have many years experience working with those with additional support needs.
Nature therapy sessions are tailored to support the needs of the group and cover topics, including:-
Practical conservation
Emotions and communication
Team building
Creative activities
Nature exploration and connection
They are designed to build self-esteem, communication and teamwork skills, as well as providing a nurturing experience in nature. We recommend sessions last for a minimum of 2 hours and programmes run for around 6 – 12 weeks.
Nature Therapy from The Ecology Centre has provided a fantastic opportunity and learning experience for a small group of our pupils. They have been out in the fresh air in all weathers, including snow, engaging with all the activities. The growth in their resilience and self-esteem, as well as their teamwork and problem solving has been very evident as the sessions have progressed.
