‘Junior Conservation Club Night Walk’
If you are between the ages of 8 and 14 years, come and join the fun with our night residents. After dark the park comes alive as potoroos, bettongs and bandicoots forage for food, wild bats wake up from their daytime slumber and wild possums come searching for fun.
Kids aged 8 to 14 years and their families will be provided with a torch or lantern to enable them to see the animals. Experience night darkness in Cleland Wildlife Park while listening, smelling and adjusting to a nocturnal environment. Feed potoroos, search for bats, and learn how to create habitats for nocturnal animals in your own backyard. The evening will end in the ‘Ocean to Outback’ building for hot beverages and light refreshments.
When: Saturday 17th October 2026
Information to follow. Available for bookings closer to date.
