Bush School at Parramatta Park
About this event
Bush School is a nature play program for 2.5 - 5 year olds and their carers, set in the heart of Parramatta Park. It's about climbing, collecting, splashing, balancing, building, and wandering - without rushing to the next thing.
Each week at Bush School, we follow the rhythms of the season – discovering what's happening in the park right now!
Their sessions are guided by weather, local wildlife, and children's curiosity, allowing us to respond to what we find and what captures their imagination each day.
Meeting point: The Dairy, Parramatta Park
Best Parking: Long Avenue, Parramatta Park
Each session is child-led and open-ended. There are cubbies to build, ropes to tie, bugs to watch and plenty of dirt to dig. Kids set the pace. Educators support the play. Adults stay and get involved, learning alongside their child through nature connection and hands-on activities.
