Get Rewarded with the Children’s University
Embark on a remarkable educational journey at the Adelaide Showground Farmers’ Market with Children’s University Australasia and Africa! Our program invites children aged 7 to 14 (with 5 and 6-year-olds accompanied by their families and carers) to explore the fascinating world of our food sources, South Australian farming, and seasonal produce. Through engaging and high-quality learning experiences outside traditional school hours, children will discover the importance of sustainable agriculture, gain insights into local farming practices, and deepen their understanding of seasonal food. Join us in this enlightening adventure through the Children’s University.
Collect your worksheet and pencil from the Information Stand near the Northern entrance of the market. The worksheet will take you around our market to explore for interesting and unusual produce and will take approximately half an hour. When you’ve finished bring your CU Passport back to be stamped at the Information Stand desk after you have finished the farmers’ market activity.
We regularly host Kids Club activities in our Kids’ Corner and participating in these will also count towards your Children’s University accreditation.
