National Children's Week
October 2020
Adventure in nature to win

Play, create, imagine and explore nature in the City of Subiaco with the new Nature Passport by Nature Play WA.

Outdoor creative play is an important part of child development - and it's as simple as getting outside! The Nature Passport takes you to six parks within the City to complete activities – invent a scent, build a muddy sculpture or create leaf art! You can rediscover your local area, or even your backyard with a wildlife safari and 15 outdoor activity ideas.

Share your adventures in nature for a chance to win 1 of 10 nature play prize packs worth over $1000! Submit a photo and description online by midnight Sunday 15 November.

Available now from all City facilities to celebrate National Children's Week.
