Fiery Foxes
We know Fiery Foxes are growing quickly and itching to do things for themselves. That’s why we make each week an exciting new outdoor adventure! We set off on long wanders through the forest, carve tools and craft baskets, play games that test our teamwork, and more. By creating with their hands and working as a group, Fiery Foxes learn what they’re capable of.
Foxes learn:
- About a range of plants and animals that share our environment
- How different plants can be used
- How to identify and manage risk
- Survival skills like fire-building, carving, and shelter-building
- Team work, overcoming challenges and problem solving
