For 27 years, the Libelhamelclub has been Kalmthout's nature club! Here, children aged 6 to 12 are trained to be 'mavericks'. Once a month on Wednesday afternoons, the de Vroente location is a great base to visit the Kalmthoutse Heide.


We owe the great success of our club to its playful, non-school way of working. We always go outside - weather or not! Self-discovery, experimentation and being creative in and with nature are our main goals. Using a variety of working methods, we aim for unforgettable experiences and the playful acquisition of insight into the interconnectedness of nature. This is our guideline for respectful interaction with every living being, including each other!
For each activity, the guides (all experienced nature guides) work out a particular theme. The keywords here are wonder and playful creativity.
Every year in September the new working year starts. The permanent base is De Vroente in Kalmthout. The children remain members for a whole school year and can take part in 10 activities. These activities take place once a month on Wednesday afternoons from 2 p.m. to 4.30 p.m.
The membership fee for 1 school year is 50 euros. Membership fees are not refunded if members decide to stop participating after all.
We allow a maximum of 25 members per group. If full, you will be put on the reserve list.
Once the form(1 for each child) is completed and forwarded, your child will have an option on a spot in the dragonfly hamel club.
