About this Event

Nature Walk with Singapore Democratic School

Do you take an interest in topics such as 'self-directed education', 'unschooling', and a child-centric approach towards education? Then join us for a fun and family-friendly nature walk!


During our walk, we will be discussing the book 'Free to Learn' by Professor Peter Gray. In the book, Peter Gray discusses how play is essential for children to become happier, more self-reliant, and better students for life. He argues in favour of self-directed education, which means that students get to decide what, when, and how to learn.


We will be meeting outside the Botanic Gardens MRT near the entrance to the Botanic Gardens.


This walk is organised by Singapore Democratic School. You can learn more about the school here:
