An outdoor classroom!
Around the park students can discover facts and details about the animals through observation, hands-on/ experiential learning and the information signage available, as well as through listening to keepers at the daily animal presentations.
The bushman’s hut provides a perfect workshop in a stimulating environment, for students to complete tasks and be given instructions.
QR codes are located around the park to access videos that provide information when you see the Tasmanian Devils, meet a Wombat and Koalas, see some of the most venomous Snakes of the world, giant Saltwater Crocodiles and much more!
Below are links to the videos (that can be scanned at the park at enclosures):
