Connecting Children to Nature through immersion in the natural environment
Kings Park education programs immerse students in nature and explore the inter-connected worlds of plants, animals and people. All our interactive outdoor learning experiences are facilitated by experienced education staff and cater for Kindergarten to Tertiary students.
Education programs for 2012 are based on the Australian Curriculum and retain links to the WA Curriculum Framework where appropriate.
Essential Information: Whether you are intending to visit Kings Park and Botanic Garden for a guided education program, self-guided excursion or as a picnic stopover, please book your visit with our Education Bookings Officer. It is vital in the case of fire or other emergency that we have a contact phone number for groups of students in the park.
