Kids of all ages will be delighted by our one hour ‘action-packed’ educational workshops. We offer an unbeatable variety of species, which are guaranteed to enthral and engage your Children. Interactive and ‘hands-on’, our service is the perfect way to enjoy the holiday break.

Awesome Team and unbelievable wildlife!

Our Team are dynamic and entertaining. We really know how to engage with kids.

Our energetic and ‘hands-on’ learning programs makes a Wild Action visit a highlight of any OSHC program. Everyone, has an opportunity to hold an animal in front of their peers, and everybody has the opportunity to have a personal photo experience to share with their families.

Our Curriculum Focus is flexible and appropriate:

The Wild Action Team are more than happy to ’tailor’ your workshop to specific learning outcomes or study interests. Not only do we provide an unbelievable wildlife experience, we aim to instil an invaluable wonderment and respect for our Natural World.

Our incursion will help grow your Children’s confidence in interacting with wildlife, and strengthen their understanding of the importance of protecting biodiversity.

FAQ’s

Do our animal’s get stressed?

This is a very important question!

All of our animals are part of our huge extended Family. Most, if not all of our animals are lovingly hand-reared and cared for in the home of the Director of Wild Action, Zoologist Chris Humfrey and his Family. This is why we can bring such a diverse array of native wildlife safely into your classroom. Our animals are not stressed! In fact, they love interacting with people. To accomplish this, it this takes 24/7 passion, energy and commitment to achieve this special experience.
