Young Naturalists Club

YNC is an exciting nature discovery and environmental action program that invites young people 5-14 years to discover nature in their own neighbourhoods, explore local ecosystems, learn about native wildlife and plants and take part in environmental actions to protect their habitat.

Membership is $25 per family for one year, and includes:

• a welcome pack - bird & insect ID card, local bird checklist, magnifying glass, participation passport, and your first copy of NatureWild magazine
• Explorer days - nature field trips with experts
• Action awards
• NatureWild magazine every three months
