Early Childhood Wildlife Excursion

Today the people from West Oz Wildlife  came to Our Lady of the Cape and gave us an experience we would not forget! We were very excited to experience some Australian animals and find out some very interesting facts about them.

Both of the presenters were very knowledgeable and engaging and we learnt a lot of facts about where each animal lived, what they ate and how we could protect them in the wild. We met a Koala called Juda, a Dingo called Yapper, a Lizard called Bobby and a Snake called Molly.

The children were so interested in each animal and were even brave enough to have a snake around their neck! I was definitely not as brave at them!

Here are some photos of our incursion below.


Juda was such a soft and furry Koala and the children loved it when he looked at them!


Yapper was a very friendly Dingo and he loved his back being stroked. 


The children being very brave holding the snake!


Having a feel of Bobby the bobtail lizard. His skin was very rough!



The children loved our Australian animal incursion!
