Do plants feel the cold? Some trees seem to clutch their leaves tightly to them during the winter months and some like to drop them all and go naked.
Come explore our Temperate Region Plants garden during our Winter Hub school holiday activities and see ‘who drops a lot’.
Collect fallen leaves, make leaf rubbings and tracings, sketch, colour and write about your favourite Autum leaf.
Explore leaf shape, colour and venation and take home a leafy journey stick of your winter fun.
Bring a picnic blanket and lunch to enjoy on our grassy lawn.
Children under 16 are to be accompanied by an adult. All materials provided.
Please wear a hat and enclosed shoes; and bring a keep cup or water bottle.
Meet at Temperate garden.
This workshop supports the Botanic Gardens' commitment to creating a plant loving community dedicated to putting the plant back into Planet.
