Junior Zoo Keepers

Our Junior Zoo Cub and Junior Zoo Keeper courses give young people a chance to experience our exotic and indigenous wildlife up close and personal, whilst learning to provide for the animals and birds physical and behavioral needs in captivity.

The classes are facilitated by a registered teacher and / or our Zoo Veterinarian. They are targeted towards fun, whilst building an understanding of animal needs in the wild and in captivity, and introducing the sciences of zoology, animal behaviour and veterinary Science.

Courses are run each school holidays, and through term time in the weekends. We have students who have gone on to study Zoology, Veterinary Medicine and become Zoo Keepers.
