Please inform the Education Coordinator of approximate numbers 1 week prior to your visit, at education@moonlitsanctuary.com.au
Final numbers will be checked upon entry and invoiced for accordingly.
What to wear
As we are primarily an outdoor venue, it is critical that students bring weather appropriate clothing. This includes closed-toe shoes and raincoats/hats should rain be forecast; warm clothing for cold days; and for warmer days, please instruct students to apply insect repellent in the morning as there are mosquitos in the area.
What to bring
Please bring lunches and drinks in small bags for students to carry individually. In some cases, an undercover seating area may be reserved to leave belongings for the day. This must be pre-arranged with the Education Coordinator education@moonlitsanctuary.com.au
Where to arrive
Instruct your bus drivers to parallel park in the Bus Zone. Please enter through our Admissions building and inform Admission staff of the name of your school/organisation. Inform staff of final numbers and receive roo food order, if pre-arranged.
If a different entry point has been pre-arranged with us then please enter as previously instructed by the Education Coordinator.
How to behave
We wish all our visitors, including schools, have a positive experience so ask that some preparatory discussion with your students is undertaken regarding respect and care for animals.
We anticipate that all attending supervising adults will actively support the students’ respectful engagement with our wildlife.
The linked Guide to Wallaby Walk and Species Identification may help in this discussion.
