Horticulture and Arboriculture Taster Day

What's it all about?

Horticulture

Get your competitive spirit on - you'll be part of a team racing to locate and correctly identify (using your horticulture skills) rare trees and shrubs in the Hamilton Gardens. The winning team will win a prize.

Arboriculture

See the world from a different perspective. Experience life as an arborist and learn to climb trees safely, using the right equipment. If you have an adventurous spirit, love the great outdoors, and enjoy challenging yourself physically, arboriculture could be your future.

What to bring / wear?

Please bring appropriate clothing and closed in shoes (eg sneakers) that are suitable for orienteering.

As these activities have an outdoor element, please also bring a raincoat, water bottle and sun protection as necessary.

Experience both Horticulture & Arboriculture, and Landscape Taster Days

The Wintec Horticulture & Arboriculture Taster and Landscape Taster days run consecutively on Fridays throughout 2020. This provides students with the opportunity to experience all available pathways at our Hamilton Gardens Campus across two days.
