Fighting Extinction Schools community
The Fighting Extinction Schools program provides teachers with the support that they need to build their own curriculum-linked wildlife conservation projects with their students.
These teachers take advantage of an extensive range of excursions, teaching resources, and professional development to help design their projects. Fighting Extinction Schools also get access to platforms to celebrate their student’s work with a wider audience and receive authentic feedback from Zoos Victoria’s expert staff.
How to become a Fighting Extinction School
When you share the actions that your students have taken for animals on our online platform, you become a Fighting Extinction School. Big or small, we love to see what you and your students are doing.
We know that creating a curriculum-linked wildlife conservation project is not a simple task. For this reason, we offer a range of support to become a Fighting Extinction School.
- Excursions and programs all with easy to use teaching guides
- Animal Teaching Resources
- Teacher Professional Development
- Teacher Mentoring Program
- Online communities
- School case studies
