One Day - 5 Skills
At Everyday Bushcraft, our 1 Day – 5 Skills course is a hands-on experience designed to reconnect people with nature — and with themselves.
In a single day, participants learn five essential bushcraft skills:
-
Self-Aid – how to care for yourself and others in the field and in life.
-
Knots – problem-solving, patience, and the power of small, deliberate actions.
-
Shelter – protection, teamwork, and building safe spaces for yourself and others.
-
Fire – focus, transformation, and learning to manage your inner spark.
-
Water – safety, purification, and finding clarity of thought amid life’s noise.
Each skill blends practical techniques with life lessons — showing how bushcraft mirrors the challenges we face every day. Parents and children often attend together, discovering that learning side-by-side strengthens understanding, empathy, and trust.

What Participants Are Saying
“We loved our bushcraft day! The way life lessons and wisdom were woven into the activities made it so much more than just knots and fires.”
“My son’s been practising the knots ever since — it helps calm him down when he’s anxious. I never imagined something so simple could make such a difference.”
“We learned so much, but the day flew by! The shelter building was a favourite, and the patience and focus needed for fire-lighting was a great lesson for both of us.”
“We’re not massive campers, but these are skills everyone should know. It’s amazing how Gavin connects the practical with the personal.”

Because at Everyday Bushcraft, the skills you learn in the bush become the strengths you carry into life.
Pay What You Feel
Together we grow - contribute what feels right to you, or provide feedback if we missed the mark.
How Much?
