Waste Champions (City of Cockburn):  Do you have what it takes to be a Waste Champion? Test your knowledge and race your classmates in the bin relay and bingo.

Mysterious Macroinvertebrates (Dr Catherine Baudains): Explore what lives below the surface of a healthy wetland. Use a sweep net to collect a sample then look at what you find under the microscope!

Animals of the Outback (WA Wildlife): The desert is not deserted! Australian deserts are full of wildlife that have evolved to living in extreme conditions. Although thriving, our Australian outback faces significant threats to its health. Come learn how we can address these threats and meet some of the animals we could be helping.  

Ground Cover and Infiltration (Water Corporation): Students will investigate the effect ground cover has on the amount of water infiltration into soil.

Experience the world of the unique Southwestern Snake-Necked Turtles (The Wetlands Centre Cockburn): Students will discover the world of mammals through habitat investigations, understanding their survival techniques and by meeting resident mammals at WA Wildlife.

Growing our WA Native Species - Six Seasons program (The Wetlands Centre Cockburn): Fuel your students' curiosity and creativity, as they dive into the rich cultural heritage of the Nyungar Six Seasons, passionately merging it with botanical knowledge and  a visit to the community native plant nursery.

Wilderness Awareness Games (Educated by Nature): Wilderness Awareness Games are a way of connecting with nature through playing games. Generally, the Wilderness Awareness Games we play are high energy, involve fast movement – running, chasing, dodging, jumping – and get the heart pumping. They are based on animal behaviours observed in the wild and often require children to imitate the forms or actions of particular animals. There are rules and instructions for each game that require focus. The games require balance and coordination – developing agility in the body and stretching proprioception and equilibrioception. Games are collaborative and often require teams that develop cooperation and empathy.

Wetlands Tales (Soul Reserve): Students will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the lore of our wetland plants through mesmerising tales. Don’t miss this extraordinary opportunity to blend art, nature, and storytelling into an unforgettable experience.

Bringing the Beach to You: Students will learn about the importance of the ocean in the water cycle, how the water and dune environments interact and support each other and interact and identify with items washed up onto the beach.
