Social Outreach Programme

The Cape Winelands Biosphere Reserve management team advocates linking nature, education, and life skills in order to inform and inspire people to live in Harmony with Nature. The CWBR supports eco-educational overnight outings through ongoing collaboration and partnerships.

The CWBR joined De Hoop again this year in assisting them with their Social Outreach Programme, to expose children who have never been to a pristine environment, in particular, the wild Rocky Shores and open plains with roaming wildlife at De Hoop Nature Reserve. 14 children and 2 teachers from the local community took part in the weekend filled with adventurous activities.

The mobile educational unit STEAM-Y came along and was the backdrop for a screening of the day’s events (as captured by the children with a camera) in the evening.
