Nature education
Welcome to our nature education page!
Here you can read everything about the range of nature education offered by De Bloemoloog and you can sign up for the newsletter specifically about nature education using the button at the bottom of this page.
Use the button next to it to send Roos a message if you would like to make a booking or ask a question. Include 'education' in the subject line, and she will get back to you as soon as possible.
What does the Bloemoloog do?
Bloemoloog offers various lessons about organic flowers, biodiversity and nature.
Our lessons are open to everyone aged 2 to 104!
Lessons may be theoretical or hands-on. Whenever plant material is needed, we use only certified organic plants, alongside sustainable and natural materials.
Roos has a pedagogical, cultural and social background and lovingly adapts the lessons to the target group, current themes and learning objectives.
During the first meeting, both the group and the location are discussed so that good coordination can be found in the offerings during the lesson.
Below is the button where you can send Roos a message. (Don't forget to mention 'education' in the subject!)
Cooperation
The lessons can be scheduled directly through the Florologist, and there is also a wide range of activities available through De Natuurgids Alkmaar. Visit the websitenatuurlijkgidsalkmaar.nl/ for the complete range.
Teachers from the Alkmaar Catholic Schools Foundation (SAKS) have the option to send a message within the Talent Circle; this is linked to Roos' email address and she will contact you.
Supporting teaching materials are used during the lessons, which range from books to illustrations and talking pictures or search pictures that you can use later in nature.
The illustrations used come from Captain Kalk; an artist who makes the most beautiful chalkboard drawings! She has had images printed of these chalkboard drawings and these are used during lessons.
Interested in the maps or curious about Captain Kalk?

Illustrations:
Some of the illustrations are made by Eentje van Margo.
She makes beautiful drawings that focus on life with nature, making her illustrations a valuable addition to the lessons!
