Contributions

GUIDEING

We build nurturing, support-based relationships with young people and parents. We actively engage in asking questions to support them to be in better relationship with self, other and the web-of-life.

FACILITATION

We facilitate connection-activities, explorations, discussions, games, activities and creative projects that support learning experiences in a fun, playful and meaningful way, and often result in real-world outcomes.

Village-Genius Focused

We call on those in the community living their purpose and passion to share their story, expertise and heart with our young people. This inspires the young people to live their passion too and recognise what ignites them.

Storytelling

We tell stories regularly – both personal and ancient to foster learning. We also give young people the opportunity to regularly share their stories, perspectives and understandings.

Our Purpose

Support cultural revitalisation by contributing to how families choose learning pathways for their children. Biologically aligned, science backed, family & village focused, culture changing.

NEST OF TALES 10+

Term 2 & 3, 2025 (April 29 - Sept 30)


Friday Evenings once per month + 1x Saturday Afternoon

We all need stories. The most useful perhaps those lived, felt and articulated in a way for our descendents to harvest the wisdom and deepen their insight. Combine these with folk tales and myths that have traversed the world, lived through cultural change and upheaval, and are still told today through the mouths of oral storytellers and you have a recipe for intergenerational wisdom sharing and the rebirth of healthy culture.

Weekly Programs

DIVE - 10-13 YR OLDS

RUNS Tuesdays

Wisdom stories tell us we are all on a quest. A quest to discover and express the creative pattern within our-self. A pattern that adds a necessary contribution and unique beauty to the tapestry of creation ongoing. This pattern is our genius. The quest is to journey towards our genius.

At Dive we support the journey towards unfurling this genius, alongside exploring and discovering the ‘genius-patterns’ within our community landscapes, People & organisations.

TOGETHERING - 4-7yr OLDs

RUNS Thursday A.m. & P.M.

Since the dawn of humanity we humans have always sung of all our relations. We've always sung of being interwoven with web of life that is this earth and our species unity within it. Our actions also modeled this to our young people, they witnessed its simplicity, its relevance & its sacredness.

So in this time of the great turning and the rebuilding of values systems that celebrate our togetherness we bring you a time of Togethering, with our local homeschooling families.
