Wild 2 Hunter Gatherer is a journey back in time to where our ancestors had to hunt and forage in order to survive.
A big part of Wild 2 is our spear making activity, your child will be given a comprehensive knife safety lesson. they will then with assistance tgey will harvest, de-bark, sharpen and then fire harden their very own spear to keep (if it's ok with parents that is ;))

* Set traps in an attempt to catch fish, eel's and yabbies and then release them back into the river
* Look at bird traps, snares and a range of traditional weapons used worldwide by our ancestors
