About the Event
Wildlife Wednesdays are back! Term 1 is jam-packed with awesome activities to do each Wednesday afternoon.
Welcome to Wildlife Wednesdays, where kids can have fun and enjoy nature-rich, STEM-based activities with an environmental focus after school.
4th February - Celebrating World Wetlands Day
The first week of Wildlife Wednesday is all about our wonderful wetlands. Learn about Perth’s wetlands and why they matter for fish, turtles, birds, frogs, insects, and people. Have a go with our scooping equipment so you can see for yourself what lives in the lake. What makes a wetland? Can you build one in a jar?
You will also have a chance to explore the interactive Discovery Centre to learn about the native animals found around Herdsman Lake and watch animal feeds.
