A Nature-Based Therapeutic Experience for Children & Families

The Therafarm Group is a unique, school holiday intensive program that blends individualised support with small group connection in a nurturing outdoor setting. Designed for primary school-aged children, this neuroaffirming program supports emotional wellbeing, authentic relationships, and sensory-regulating experiences through nature, play, and co-created goals.
