Luna Park On Play - The School of Life
The School of Life and Rockwiz’s Brian Nankervis are letting you play all day. Really.
Overview
Listen up grown ups, we've got some good news: play is not just for kids. Another bombshell: play is also not just about having fun, although it's inevitably part of the process (and pretty much the whole point). Hold up, we're not acting the Fun Police. There's just more to playing than you think. Through play we develop curiosity, learn new things about the people and the world around us, as well becoming more adaptable to change. Plus, you clock up some mad gross motor skills and often increase your fitness while you're at it.
To unpack of the art of play, The School of Life is taking us to perhaps Melbourne's most famous playground, Luna Park, for a day of playtime with Rockwiz’s Brian Nankervis. Over a day of planned activities within the park, you’ll explore different states of play and how it contributes to healthy human development. This could be the most fun day of learning you'll ever have — you're literally encouraged to play all day. By-the-book teachers, take a lesson.
Although tickets are a little on the exxy side, this is kind of half-TED Talk, half-playtime, so you're getting your money's worth. So snag a ticket and lock in this grown-up playdate. The important thing to remember about play? It doesn’t have to lead to a material outcome, so stress less.
