Loving being on tour with my book... but one thing amazes. That almost no-one knows where the term "harelip" originates and why, these days, it's considered demeaning. So, for your reading (with love) : spaltkinder.org/en/cleft-child…

The principal @NatureSquiggle was at the bushland this morning at 7:30 for a family event. Citizen Science is my happy space. 😃


So this happened last night at the closing ceremony of The National Outdoor Education Conference. Very humbled and honoured to receive this recognition for furthering outdoor learning in Australia. 🌿 #noec2022 @outdoorsnswact

Shannon was incredible and is an inspiration to all teachers - please pass on our thanks for her contribution 👏


So proud to have one of my teachers from #TheNatureSchool sharing with colleagues from across NSW 🌿 #mathsoutdoors @misterwootube @AISNSWPrimary @NewsAtNESA

🏙 Loved spending an hour with @NewsAtNESA Teacher Expert Networks from across the state this morning. Thanks to my co-panelists Shannon Kelly, Rob Attwood & @attard_c who shared fantastic insights - as well as @JakeLittle91 who steered the ship brilliantly!

Check out this helpful guide to find out how to submit bird surveys of your own using Birdata! This data helps our researchers better understand where birds are found & how their populations are changing, which helps us protect them. Visit birdata.birdlife.org.au 🖌Rob Mancini

After hundreds of hours of collecting, sorting, identifying and photographing seashells, my comprehensive field guide 'Seashells of North Haven Beach' is finally out. Available now at …ashellsofnorthhavenbeach.company.site, it's a must have for Australian beachcombers (I promise!)

Yes!! We are on a mission at The Nature School to ensure every child gets the time they need for play... and childhood extends well beyond age 5!

@Dr_Pete_King we would love a copy of this book for our staff library at The Nature School in Port Macquarie, Australia. Do you agree @NatureSquiggle?
