Getting back to the great outdoors

As Part of the Summer Nature Study program of Mysore Amateur Naturalists we are conducting a six days residential Nature camp in the Western Ghats. The aim of the camp is to bring in a deep cultural change and connecting children to Nature, so that they can be more confident, healthier and happier as citizens of future. The camp has lots of hands on activities but without any intriguing time limit that puts the child into curriculum like pressure. They are encouraged to explore and realize the mysteries of Nature for themselves.
 
Learning in the wild
 With Children getting less time to spend in Nature than ever before, the biggest victim is Mother Nature herself. We share our concern through exposing children to eminent persons in the field who have lived their lives with different approaches to care for and share Nature. With a battery of resource persons who have worked with Nature and children for more than two decades this annual camp has become a Social movement.

Our environment-based education movement-- will help students realize that school isn't a form of incarceration, but a portal to the wider world with numerous possibilities and lesser completion. That reduces the stress upon your children and energizes them for the coming year in school.
Exploration of the rain forest

The camp site is at Sita Nadi Herpeto Camp, in Someshwara Wildlife Sanctuary in Udapi district. It is a serene, child-friendly campus and off the main stream life and provides an excellent atmosphere to immerse oneself in nature and devote for self exploration.
