Big Day In the bush
Country people travel the miles, take the time, and make the effort to gather at social occasions. For many in the bush, neighbours are further away than what urban dwellers drive from their homes to work every day. There are limited services and high costs when living in some of the rural and regional areas of Australia.
Australia is a big place.
Connecting with others is important. Essential.
What if people who live in these places enhanced those social occasions with a dash of education? Or created education occasions with a dash of social to create long-lasting learning opportunities?
That is what Big Day In is about.
Big Day In provides a structure to guide you. You provide the content. The content is about what you like to do when you are not doing what you have to do in life… or what you want to know more about… or what you know that you think that others might like to know.
What do you like to do?
What’s an activity that you could do with others?
Do you wonder what others like to do?
And how they could share that with you?
Do you wonder if you and others like to do similar or complementary activities?
Is Big Day In for you?
