Bush Kindy - Australian Wildlife Week

Get up close and discover the feathered, furry and scaly friends that live in our neighbourhoods. Bush Kindy is for children aged 3-5 years, alongside their parents and carers.

Native wildlife live all around us, from our backyards to local parks and nature reserves. But have you had a chance to meet them up close?

Join our wildlife expert for a special Bush Kindy wildlife experience as they introduce children to a variety of Australian animals, including amphibians, reptiles, mammals and birds. Discover what makes these creatures unique, learn how to be a wildlife-friendly neighbour, and enjoy an interactive experience designed especially for young children and their families.
