Soil Story: Building Relationships with nature

About this initiative

This proposed innovative project aims to work with Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) educators, DCU lecturers and BECE 3rd Year students to encourage young children become ‘change makers’ and ‘citizen scientists’ in their own local communities. Through theatre performance with children and CPD sessions with adults we aim to build children’s relationship with nature and all the living organisms that inhabit the soil ecosystem.
