Dear Friends,
 
The Leafmonkey Workshop is organising "The Guides of Singapore Shores" series which is a weekly series of workshops held over 5 Thursday evenings beginning in July, organised in collaboration between the Blue Water Volunteers (BWV), The Leafmonkey Workshop and WildSingapore with Supporting Partner, The Singapore Scout Association.
 
This course is specially for Singapore shore guides: veteran, newbie, wannabe! A series of intensive workshops that covers all our favourite shore ecosystems, and ends with a field session!

The focus is on developing and learning guiding techniques. So that we can better raise awareness about our shores. The series is very hands on, with lots of discussion and sharing. The finale is a field assessment session on an actual shore!

All shore guides from all groups are welcomed to attend! So it's also a unique opportunity to meet other shore guides. Together, everyone can share, learn and DO!

Each session begins with a brief introduction to the framework issues and Q&A. Following which, the participants will be divided into small groups. The bulk of the time is allocated to small-group workshops facilitated by experienced shore guides. It's a fun and meaningful way to learn from one another, and develop new ideas to reach out for our shores!
