Take some time to find some stillness at the start of the new year and join us in beautiful Lartelare Park alongside the Port River and have a go at nature journaling.

Connect with nature while you learn to sketch, make notes and record your surrounds in a gentle, fun and supported way. Facilitated by Jenny Deans, this workshop invites you to explore your creativity and find some mindful moments considering whats growing around you, while developing your artistic skills.

No experience necessary - this relaxing workshop will introduce you to seeing nature in different ways. From complete beginners to the most experience artist, everyone will find new ways to connect through this session. All equipment provided and you will receive a notebook to take home with you and continue your nature journaling practice.

While this event is aimed at adults, families are also welcome to attend. Children will need to have a concession ticket, must be accompanied by a guardian and be appropriately supervised at all times. The workshop is generally suited to children over 8 years but may suit some younger children.

Lartelare is a beautiful, waterfront space to explore, observe and reflect. Lartelare was designed as a place to tell local Aboriginal stories and to recognise the birthplace of Lartelare. Full of local native plants, it is a space that combines indigenous culture, art, history, nature and play.

Parking is available under the Hart Street Bridge, accessed from Wirra Drive (note the nearest public toilets are a 5 minute walk away).

Please dress for the weather and remember to bring a hat, sunscreen, water bottle and snacks. In the morning, by the river, with shade from the bridge above, we should be protected from the worst of the summer heat.

We will postpone the event if the weather forecast is over 35 DecC and will notify you of this via email and sms. If we need to postpone, the backup date is Wednesday 29th Jan, 6pm - 8pm.

Please contact the Port Environment Centre if you have any mobility or access concerns.

Numbers are limited, so please let us know if you can no longer make it.

🌲🌿🌳🌱🍃 Hello all plant lovers!! 🌳🌿🍃🌱🌲 Grey Box Day is coming up again soon, on Sunday 5 May, 10am-4pm. Hosted by Greybox Community Organisation Inc, the day aims to raise awareness of the importance of Grey Box trees. The Grey Box (Eucalyptus microcarpa) Grassy Woodlands was formerly widespread across south-eastern Australia. Today, only 10 to 15% of its original extent remains. In the weeks before the event, Yellow ribbons will be tied around Grey Box trees in City of Mitcham to highlight these special trees. Grey Box trees grow slowly and rarely reach a size where they are protected in South Australia. On Sunday 5 May 10AM - 4PM, at State Flora in Belair National Park, there will be a special on native plants 🌱🌲🍃🌱🌿🌳

The Kidical Mass movement is global!

Join thousands of children and their families worldwide in taking over their city streets to claim their right to ride safely.

"Kidical Mass is more than just a protest; it gives children a voice, creating a positive vision for the future, connecting the young and old across the cycling community".

Organising partners Middle Ground Motherhood, Bike Adelaide and Parents for Climate, with support from Bike SA and the Commissioner for Children and Young People, invite you to our local event on Sunday, 22 September 2024 at 10 am, beginning and ending at Whitmore Square/Iparrityi, Adelaide.

Our third annual event is set to be our biggest ever!

Our campaign asks for decision-makers to:

(1) Enable and activate bike riding joy

(2) Create comfortable, convenient and connected bike-riding routes and healthy streets

(3) Support children's wellbeing and health through bike riding (and walking/wheeling) to school.

Our top three priorities for action include:

🚴‍♀️ #30Please A safer speed on our streets is 30 km/h 🚴 #SafeStreetstoSchool Prioritise active transport around schools 🚴 #EBikeSubsidies Make it cheaper to choose electric bikes.

We will publish our demonstration day statement closer to the event.
