Bring the science of the animal kingdom to life by examining skulls, biological artefacts and zoo animals.

This Zoos Victoria digital program supports the Science curriculum and is free for all Victorian schools. It includes a 30-minute online workshop and an optional teaching guide filled with classroom activities.

While not a tour of the zoo, online workshops give you direct access to a Zoo Teacher and unique content. Each workshop is hosted on Zoom. You will not need a webcam or microphone – type your questions into the Q&A box.

Students will learn:

Structural and behavioural animal adaptations
Animal classifications Human impact on places, habitats and ecosystems
How to classify animals in various ways
How to use scientific knowledge for wildlife conservation

Online workshops are held on four Wednesdays in 2023 from 10:45-11:15am, and will have the same format and content each time.
