Teacher Sneak Peek

A Teacher Sneak Peek is a unique opportunity for teachers planning to bring a group to the Zoo. Things might have changed since you were last here, so to ensure your group gets the most our of their visit we recommend that you check out the Zoo first.
 
We can arrange free entry, providing the opportunity to view our facility, as well as the opportunity to meet with the Education staff should you wish to discuss excursion options.

Tribe Talks are a thirty-minute presentation delivered by one of our education staff in our beautiful surrounds (weather permitting). Of course, Australia Zoo has a reputation for up close encounters with our wildlife, and the Tribe Talk is no exception. The presentation includes a visit from an animal, relevant to your selected topic, that your students may have the opportunity to touch. There is also time for questions and answers at the conclusion of the Tribe Talk.

Tribe Talks are charged at our cheapest supplementary educational program rate, and can be delivered to groups of up to 40 students. Depending on staffing, we can accommodate up to two groups at a session time. Can't find the exact topic you're looking for? Give us a call, and we will discuss with you how we can modify an existing talk to suit your needs.

• Endangered Species
  We are all aware of the dire situation that our planet's endangered species are facing. We consider the causes and effect that have resulted in a global decline, not seen since the extinction of dinosaurs. We also share information about the amazing work being carried out by Australia Zoo and Wildlife Warriors to turn this situation around.
  
  
• Animal Adaptations
  Crocodilians have remained relatively unchanged for 100 million years. Your students will learn how the crocodile's structural and behavioural adaptations have ensured its phenomenal success as an organism. After investigating the crocodile, we throw open the discussion to your students prompting them to uncover the relationship between adaptation, environment and survival with other animals.
