    Stream Detectives
    At Braemar Hill stream, children explore as detectives — noticing what lives in the water, what the stream creates, and the sounds unique to this place.

    They observe, listen, and collect small discoveries, building awareness through their senses at their own pace.

    Activity:
    On day 2, children explore the question: How do I choose to explore and play?

    Build Your Own Obstacle Course
    Children work together to create their own simple obstacle course using safe, age-appropriate materials at More Good. They make choices about where things go and how they want to move through the space — climbing, balancing, and exploring at their own pace.

    Mentors guide gently through simple prompts, encouraging confidence, independence, and self-directed play.

    Exploring Flavours & Textures
    Children explore different fruits through touch, smell, and taste, noticing what they like and prefer. They then choose their ingredients and blend them into simple fruit purées to make their own tie-dye fruit popsicles.

    Through this sensory experience, children begin to express preferences, make choices, and build confidence in trying something new.

    Planting My Own Pot
    Each child plants seeds or seedlings into a small pot, making simple choices about what to plant and how to arrange it. With gentle guidance, they prepare the soil, place their seed, and water it — beginning to understand what it means to care for something living.

    Examining My Popsicles
    Children revisit their frozen popsicles, observing how they have changed in colour, texture, and shape. As they taste and compare, they are encouraged to describe what they notice and reflect on the process of making them.

    Key Activities:
    On day 4, children explore: How can I move safely in nature? What do I notice in a new environment?

    Forest Exploration + Hike to Lookout Point
    Using the natural terrain of Lung Fu Shan — from forest slopes to stepping stones — children move through a facilitated obstacle sequence, discovering how their bodies respond to uneven ground. Through this, they build confidence, balance, and body awareness in a natural environment.

    They then continue along the winding forest trails, hiking uphill through trees and across varied terrain. As they go, children develop a stronger sense of confidence, coordination, and navigation in the outdoors.

    Key Activities:
    On day 5, children explore: What captures my attention? What do I notice when I look closely?

    Coastal Ecosystem Investigation
    Children explore natural materials found along the Shek O coast — shells, kelp, seeds, leaves, and coastal plants. Using simple tools and magnifying glasses, they open, pull apart, and examine what they find.

    Through this, they notice textures, shapes, and scents, building curiosity and attention to detail in the natural world.

    My Totem Marker This Week
    Children reflect on their experience and add their personal mark to the ME section of The Shed’s Summer Totem — a shared piece that captures each child’s perspective.

    Over time, they return to add to the WE and US sections, creating a lasting record of how they grow and see the world across the summer.

Daily Activities + Locations

  • Location:
    Pok Fu Lam

    Key Activities:
    On day 1, children explore: How do we support one another in new challenges?

    Stepping Stone Crossing
    Before crossing, the group pauses to plan their route together — deciding which stones are safe, the order to go, and how to move across.

    As they cross, children practise sharing ideas, listening to one another, and working towards a shared goal — learning that success comes from moving together.

    Stream Rock Hunt
    After crossing, children explore the stream as a group — searching for something smooth, patterned, unexpected, and alive.

    They call out discoveries, help one another reach tricky spots, and bring their findings back to share — learning that exploration is richer when done together.

    Activity:
    On day 2, children explore: What can we make when we work together?

    Cooperative Building Challenge
    Children work in small groups to build a structure using blocks, loose parts, and natural materials at More Good. Together, they decide what to build, how to build it, and how to adapt when things don’t go as planned.

    Through this, children learn to share ideas, take turns, and build something together as a group.

    Making Bread Dough
    Children take turns measuring, mixing, and kneading a shared batch of dough — learning to wait, share, and keep going even when it feels challenging.

    The dough they make becomes the bread for a sandwich workshop later in the week, helping them see how their shared effort contributes to something meaningful.

    Collaborative Baking + Smoothie Making
    Children work in small groups, each taking on a different role — baking bread, preparing fillings, and blending fresh smoothies.

    Together, they set the table, arrange the food, and prepare the space for a shared meal. Through this, children experience how each contribution helps create something meaningful for others.

    Our Shared Feast
    After a morning of preparing together, children sit down to share the meal they have made. Families are invited to join, turning the experience into a shared moment of connection.

    Through this, children begin to understand how food, effort, and care can bring people together.

    Paired with a buddy, children walk the stream path together — stepping over rocks, moving through shallow water, and checking in along the way.

    They look out for one another, noticing when to help, wait, or encourage — building early awareness of care, responsibility, and kindness within the group.

    Children explore the beach together, searching for natural treasures to bring back to their shared totem.

    As they move as a group, they begin to notice how they make choices together — what to collect, where to go, and how to explore as one.

    My Totem Time Marker This Week
    Using their collected treasures, children create a shared panel for the Summer Totem. Together, they decide what to place at the centre, paint a scene, and press their findings into the surface to leave their mark.

    This becomes the Mini Shedders’ contribution to the collective totem — a reflection of what they created, decided, and experienced together.

    With gentle guidance, they begin to notice and name the life around them, building awareness of the living world they share.

    Nature Treasure Collection
    Children collect small natural finds from the stream — feathers, seed pods, and smooth pebbles — and bring them together in a shared circle.

    As they sort and count their findings, they reflect on what they discovered and what surprised them most about the world around them.

    Wet Market Visit & Ingredient Sourcing
    Children visit a local wet market to touch vegetables, smell herbs, and choose an ingredient for a cooking workshop later in the week.

    Through this experience, they begin to see how plants, animals, and people are connected — and how food moves through our shared living world.

    Worm Farm Exploration
    Children explore the worm farm — adding food scraps, observing how worms move through the soil, and noticing how materials break down over time.

    They begin to understand how even the smallest creatures play an important role in caring for the earth and supporting living systems.

    This simple act helps them understand how they can support the living things around them and give back to the places they explore.

    Aberdeen Forest Hike
    Children hike through Aberdeen Country Park, observing how forest life and human paths exist side by side — roots along trails, birds in the canopy, and insects in stone walls.

    Through this, they begin to notice how different living things share the same environment and where they fit within it.

    They begin to notice how the natural world is always changing.

    Our US Totem Marker
    Children reflect on the places, living things, and experiences from the week, and work together to create a shared scene on the US section of the Summer Totem.
