With about 50% of Australia's land mammals being marsupial they are an important part of any natural history class. A tour can be tailored for your class. Our marsupial talk can be useful to explain the finer details of many subjects and complement what students are currently studying . Usually a school group will be shown koalas, wombats and Tasmanian devils. During the talk subjects like adaptation, feeding, self-defence, reproduction, communication and classifications can be explained.

This class can be taken at any time of the year but the warmer months are better because it can be combined with a mini field trip in the sanctuary looking under rocks and logs where lizards live, also looking at what lizards eat (bugs!). The lesson also includes snake safety by a professional herpetologist. In spring time this tour ends with a look at snake habitat and a listen to some of the different frog species. Students will be able to touch a blue tongue lizard on this tour. Email.... info@trowunna.com.au
