Syllabus-linked learning

What students explore

Designed to support syllabus-linked learning, our excursions connect directly with science, biology, geography, sustainability, environmental education and personal development outcomes. Students explore habitats, ecosystems, biodiversity, animal adaptations, conservation, wildlife rescue, human impact, confidence, communication and respect for living things through safe, hands-on animal encounters.

A visit that fits your class

Rather than a rigid excursion, students can move through the attraction at their own pace and spend time in the areas that capture their interest. Throughout the visit, our staff provide close-up snake, lizard and tortoise encounters, answer questions and share engaging knowledge about our sharks, rays, crocodiles and aquatic animals.
