Young Achievers Award
Nature
The second theme of the Young Achievers Award is Nature. Time to get outside and explore!
To earn your second pin badge, you need to complete 3 Nature related tasks between April and June. For each theme you will find there is one activity that has been set by VICTA that you need to complete. The other two activities are your choice.
Other Nature activity ideas to tick off to earn your pin badge!
We’ve put together some activity ideas and opportunities for the Nature theme below to help you get started. Don’t forget, if you’d like to come up with your own ideas, that’s brilliant too. Once you have completed 3 tasks, complete the evidence submission form at the bottom of this page so we can see what you’ve been up to.
