School Programs

Zoos Victoria offers students and teachers fun and interactive learning opportunities that enable learners of all ages to:

• Connect with wildlife
• Better understand the natural world
• Be inspired to act to create a future where humans live in balance with nature

A zoo learning program can be used as a springboard for actions back at school or home, and is a great way to introduce environmental sustainability topics.

All of our programs have been developed by experienced educators to integrate learning areas and domains of the Victorian Essential Learning Standards (VELS). Follow the links for a summary of how each program aligns with VELS at Melbourne Zoo, Werribee Open Range Zoo, and Healesville Sanctuary.
