Ladybug Academy’s TravelBUG programmes inspire children to look beyond their own world and develop an understanding of the diverse countries and people across our planet. Aligned with current curriculum outcomes for the Early Years Learning Framework our programmes help develop a deep appreciation of cultural diversity to create a more positive and peaceful global community.

Hello Friends!

​

Our one-off incursion ‘Hello Friends!’ takes each child on an exciting round-the -world journey following a treasure map looking for buried silver and gold. We discover new places, learn to say hello in different countries, and try making music with African drums. This is a non- stop incursion packed full of fun and wonder as we discover new places across the globe.

Our Australian Story

​

Our Cultural Incursion, 'Our Australian Story', explores a day in the life of an Indigenous Aboriginal family, inviting your children to immerse themselves in their culture. Our experienced educators will guide the children through aboriginal art, gathering food, dancing, making music at a corroboree and listening to a dreamtime story. During this fun and hands on incursion we celebrate the differences between the diverse groups in Australia and learn to respect all friends in our Nation.
