Our school's visit to Mindful Wild Steps was a great success. The students loved the hands-on activities and learned a lot about the environment.

The seed bomb and clay sculpture activities at the Highlands Bushfest were fantastic. The kids were so engaged and had a great time.

The Campfire Cooking session was a hit! The kids enjoyed making their own food over the fire, and it was a great bonding experience.

What a great program! The kids were engaged and excited throughout the day. We’ll definitely be back.

Mindful Wild Steps is perfect for families looking to spend time in nature. The kids had a fantastic time, and so did we.

We had an amazing day at Mindful Wild Steps. The program is incredibly well-organised, with activities that are both engaging and educational.

We love coming to Bush school, Beautiful space, always friendly faces, great energy and the kids love the activities set for the day .

I just love the concept of your group and think what you are doing for the Wildlings is amazing. We are a very lucky group.

I love what you're doing and that you're a Mum running her own business and providing a beautiful space for other parents and kiddos!!!

My 11-year-old daughter absolutely loves attending Wild Steps sessions. Every week, as we leave the sanctuary, she’s already excitedly talking about the next session! The child-led, hands-on approach fosters such a love for nature and has truly strengthened her passion for the outdoors. We’ve seen her build so many new skills, from fire lighting to shelter building, and the connections she’s made with the other kids are so special. I can’t recommend Wild Steps enough!

This program has been a real game changer for my daughter. She’s always loved the outdoors, but Wild Steps has opened up a whole new world for her. She’s learned so much about nature, conservation, and bushcraft skills, and every session seems to bring something new. It’s been wonderful watching her explore, learn, and grow alongside other children, and we both love every minute of it. We’re so grateful for this experience.

My children absolutely love Mindful Wildschool 🌳🌿 They have a blast exploring the beautiful environment, engaging in organized activities and free play, and playing with the other children. Jane is fantastic and does an incredible job organising the sessions. Highly recommend! 👍

The effort Jaya puts into her programs to teach all who attend the sessions, is nothing short of amazing, the connections and friendships made are wonderful to see and experience, what dedication 10 /10

My girls love coming here, they love the activities and nature play that mindful Wildschool offers. They have made so many friends along the way. Definitely recommend this if your kids love playing out in nature and doing activities. It's a grate place for home school kids to socialise

Our family has absolutely loved attending Wild Steps. The atmosphere is always so positive and full of creativity, and it's been a fantastic safe space for us to connect with like-minded families. We initially joined to try it out, but it turned into something much more than we anticipated. The sessions have given our little one so much confidence and new life skills, and they really enjoy hanging out with their new friends. We’ve continued to recommit each term and couldn’t be happier with the experience

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ mindful wildschool is absolutely amazing! Jane is so knowledgeable and welcoming and makes it so much fun for kids and parents alike! I recommend this program for everyone 😊 give it a go!

Our recent visit to Mindful Wild Steps was an outstanding success. The program is incredibly well-organised, offering a variety of hands-on activities that engaged our students from start to finish. The children were thrilled to explore the bush, learn about local wildlife, and participate in practical bushcraft skills. The learning experience was not only educational but also deeply enriching, fostering a greater appreciation for nature among the students. As a teacher, I was impressed by the thoughtful planning and the seamless integration of fun and learning. We look forward to bringing more classes in the future.

We’ve had such a great experience at Wild Steps, and something that really stood out to us was seeing so many dads actively involved in the sessions. It’s so often that these types of activities are filled with mums, so it was really nice for our son to see other dads joining in. It’s helped create a really inclusive, relaxed environment, which has been so valuable for us. Thank you for creating such a wonderful space for everyone!

As someone who suffers from social anxiety, it can be hard to find spaces where both I and my child feel comfortable. But Wild Steps has provided exactly that—a very relaxed and welcoming environment. The kids are free to be kids and explore nature, while the parents have space to connect too. It’s been a really wonderful experience, and we always leave feeling happy and fulfilled.

Our child was so inspired after the session at Wild Steps that we spent the rest of the day in the backyard and at Bunnings, setting up our very own greenhouse! The hands-on nature play and activities have really sparked a love of the outdoors in our little one, and it’s amazing to see them so excited to bring what they’ve learned at Wild Steps into our home. We’re so grateful for this experience!

Honestly, we didn’t expect to love Wild Steps as much as we do. It’s become such an amazing part of our weekly routine. Our child has grown in so many ways since joining—more confident, more social, and more curious about the world around them. It’s also been a great way for us as parents to connect with other families who have similar values. We couldn’t be happier that we joined!

Joining Wild Steps has been one of the best decisions we’ve made for our family. From the very first session, we were struck by the positive atmosphere and the sense of community. Jaya does such an amazing job of creating a space where the children feel free to explore and learn at their own pace. Our child has gained so much confidence and developed new life skills that we’ve seen carry over into their everyday life. We especially appreciate how the sessions foster a genuine connection with nature while also encouraging social interaction. It’s been a truly rewarding experience for all of us.

Wild Steps has brought so much joy into our lives! Our little one looks forward to it every week and has really blossomed since joining. The activities are always so engaging, and there’s such a strong focus on creativity and nature. We’ve noticed a big change in their confidence, and it’s wonderful seeing them so happy and excited to spend time outdoors with friends. We’re so thankful for this space and can’t recommend it enough.

Wild Steps has been such a game-changer for us. It’s given our child the chance to learn, grow, and make new friends in the most beautiful, supportive environment. We love the mix of nature play, hands-on activities, and free time—it’s the perfect balance. We’ve been attending for several terms now and wouldn’t want to miss it!

What I love most about Wild Steps is that it’s not just about the kids—it’s about the parents too. It’s been a fantastic way for me to connect with other mums and dads who share the same values. My child loves the activities and the freedom to play, but I’ve also found it’s such a peaceful and relaxing time for me to unwind and chat with others. We’ve built some really special friendships

Such a welcoming space! Wild Steps has given us a chance to connect with nature in a fun, hands-on way. My child loves it, and I’ve enjoyed meeting other parents and seeing the kids work together.

As an educator, I’m always on the lookout for programs that complement the values we try to instil in the classroom—things like curiosity, independence, and respect for the environment. Wild Steps does exactly that and more. The sessions are thoughtfully designed to encourage hands-on learning and child-led exploration, which I find incredibly valuable. The balance of offered activities and free play allows children to engage in a way that feels authentic to them. I can wholeheartedly recommend Wild Steps to parents and fellow teachers alike—it’s a fantastic opportunity for children to connect with the natural world while building key life skills.
