Naturelovers offers nature-based education and unstructured play opportunities for children and adults at many locations across Melbourne. These locations vary from local public parks to beaches and bushland reserves, many of which are rugged, with uneven ground, trip hazards, and a wide range of native and non-native flora and fauna. By making a booking request or enrolling your child in the Naturelovers™ Afterschool Program, you consent to you or your child’s participation in recreational activities in bush and outdoor locations and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions.

You acknowledge and accept that it is your responsibility to ensure that you and your child participate only in activities for which you and your child have the necessary skills, training, and physical capability. Your child will be supervised by adults with current Working With Children Checks, at a ratio of one adult to seven or fewer children, with the lead facilitator trained in First Aid Level 2 and Forest School principles. You agree that you will follow (and ensure your child follows) the safety guidelines provided by Naturelovers and the supervising adult leaders.

You warrant that you are at least eighteen years of age, that you are the parent or legal guardian of the child you have enrolled, and that you will be the parent or legal guardian responsible for your child’s participation in the Naturelovers Afterschool Program.
