The Journey Within

Days in nature. Discoveries for life.

Nature provides the setting. Purposeful activities create the experiences. Trained facilitators guide the reflection. Each child discovers what it means for them.

Three movements

Notice. Explore. Integrate.

NOTICE

the art of paying attention

Sensory exploration, mindful movement and quiet observation.

The invitation: What am I noticing around me, and WITHIN?

EXPLORE

the courage to discover possibility

Physical challenges, creative problems and group tasks, each designed to reveal how we meet the unfamiliar.

The invitation: What am I learning about the way I think, respond and relate?

INTEGRATE

giving meaning to the experience

Guided dialogue, journaling and a closing ceremony that connect the journey to everyday life.

The invitation: What will I carry home?

Every evening

Each evening closes around the campfire, with stories chosen to open new ways of thinking.

Cohorts

Three cohorts, each designed for its age.

Every journey is shaped around what children of that age are ready to notice, try and understand.
