Let’s get hunting! It’s all about bugs these school holidays!

Bugs, bugs everywhere! 

Join us as we search high and low for land-dwelling invertebrates. We’ll dip-net for water bugs on the lake’s edge and make our own take-home bugs from clay and collected natural materials. This will be great day out amongst the beauty of the Australian Botanic Garden.

Recommended for children aged 5–12 years with an accompanying adult.
