Open your mind to the many wonders nature has to offer.
Environmental education programs
Whiteman Park’s environmental education programs offer students a unique opportunity to learn about the natural environment, conservation, groundwater, our native fauna, various ecosystems and much more through creative, interactive and engaging activities. Each program has been designed specifically for the intended age group and focuses on different aspects of the environment.
Our environment programs, set in the Children's Forest and Woodland Reserve, are delivered amongst Whiteman Park’s natural bushland by knowledgeable presenters and aim to provide students with a true environmental experience which would not be possible in a normal classroom setting.
Every program is aligned to Science or Mathematic content from the Western Australian Curriculum and embeds a sustainability thread throughout.
You can also incorporate the following options into your excursion program at Whiteman Park for no, or nominal, fees:
- Sports equipment hire
- Orienteering
- Bushwalking
- The Children’s Forest
- Sports court
- a BBQ picnic
- Playtime in the large, shaded playground.
If you would like some further information on any of our programs or would like to have our Education and Public Programs Officer come out to your school for a free information session, please call us on 9209 6000.
