Q & A

In order for each participant to have a wonderful experience, I will summarize the questions which will encounter as follows. Please check in advance and have a good ready.:)

1、Why do we want to organize these sessions?

We live so close to the forest but how much do we know about its mystery? We are fortunate to live in this amazing community but how much do we know each other? Come and discover our incredible natural environment with fellow neighbour explorers. We will be guided by a forest expert.

2、Who will guide these sessions?

Laura is an experienced naturalist who will lead the forest and nature exploration. She has a bachelor’s degree both in forestry and education, and loves to talk to all ages of people about the forest. She has been employed by a company specializing in nature education for the past three years. Before that, she volunteered as a nature and forest educator for many years and has brought many children and adults on walks into the nature. Laura lives in Hawthorne neighbourhood and looks forward to exploring our beautiful nearby forests with families from this community!

3、Are there minimum age requirements to take part in the event?

Because it is a two-hour-long walk we highly recommend that participants are six and older. Younger children may accompany elder siblings. All children must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.

4、When and where do we meet up for the Second session?

We will meet up at 10:20 am Sat., Apr. 14 2018 at Botanical garden

5、How many people can we have in each session?
