We offer engaging, hands-on learning experiences to primary and secondary schools in our priority areas across NSW. Our diverse resources are adaptable for various age groups and support key NSW Curriculum Learning Areas, incorporating culturally-responsive materials developed by First Nations. Our Outreach Education aims to enhance our bond with animals by teaching ways to keep pets happy, healthy, and safe. It also fosters a deeper understanding of animal behaviours to improve safety around them. By empowering students to care for animals, we promote compassion, health, and happiness within the community. Our education team collaborates with our Outreach Team, providing essential veterinary services, resources, and information to help people better care for and value animals, strengthening the human-animal bond.
