River Rangers: Water Explorers

All living things need water to survive, but how do animals, plants and people find and use it in the heat of summer? Join them for a full-day holiday adventure along the Parramatta River to uncover the secrets of water in the wild.

Head out on a water detective walk along the Parramatta River to discover who depends on water in the park, from bats and birds to fish and reptiles.

Dipnetting – explore below the river's surface to meet the park's tiniest critters.
Water games – splash, play and cool off with water play that brings science and fun together!
Water conservation – learn practical ways to value, protect and conserve water, both at the park and at home.

Led by experienced Education Rangers, this program blends outdoor adventure, creativity and learning, inspiring kids to see water as the lifeblood of the environment. No drop goes to waste as we help water the parklands and keep the plants growing!

This program is suitable for children aged 5 to 12 years.
