Looking for an unforgettable school holiday experience? Join us for 3 days of nature exploration, play, and creativity! Our nature-based programme offers children a chance to connect with the outdoors, engage in hands-on activities, and express their creativity through art. Our special 3-day adventure will be set in the beautiful Mātekai Park.
Perfectly nestled in the heart of the coastal village of Ōakura, Matekai Park offers the ideal setting for children to reconnect with nature and engage in imaginative play and exploration.
What’s in Store:
🌿 Nature Exploration – Guided discovery walks where kids will observe, listen, and learn about the native birds, trees, and wildlife that call Mātekai Park home.
🌼🌿Art- Back at Villa Sophia, the leaves and wildflowers foraged in Mātekai will be the inspiration for art making.
🏕️ Creative Construction – Children will build huts and shelters using sticks and natural materials they find in the bush, fostering creativity and problem-solving skills.
📝 Nature Journals – Children will create nature journals with drawings and water colours, to document their observations, sketch wildlife, name and identify their findings.
🦗Bug Hotels-Children will make a bug hotel with recycled and natural materials.
📷 Photography- Children can document their experience and what takes their eye with a digital camera.
Give your child the gift of 3 days immersed in nature—a perfect balance of learning, play, and creativity. This immersive nature program is perfect for young adventurers.
We will start each day at Villa Sophia and make the short walk to MĀTEKAI PARK NATURE RESERVE each morning (weather permitting). In the case of wet weather, our nature explorers will spend their time in the Villa and garden.
Spots are limited—book now for a holiday experience your child will cherish 🌿
