Join us along Currumbin Creek for an exciting adventure into the world of megabats! In this fun and educational program, kids will visit a real bat colony, learn fascinating facts about these incredible flying mammals, and explore the vital role they play in our ecosystems — especially as urban wildlife.
We have a special guest from Bats Queensland joining us at this program. These bat experts will share their real-life experiences rescuing and rehabilitating injured bats and their expertise on why and how we can protect these magnificent and important animals!
Through guided exploration and creative activities, children will:
🌳 See megabats up close in their natural habitat
🌺 Learn how bats help pollinate plants and spread seeds
🏙️ Understand their role in keeping urban ecosystems healthy
🎨 Create their own bat-inspired artwork to take home
Perfect for ages 6–12, this program blends nature, science, and creativity into one marvellous experience!
