SUMMARY:Penguin Patrol Excursion
DESCRIPTION:The Penguin Patrol program is a FREE school holiday activity for kids aged 8–12. It’s a fun\, hands‑on two‑part experience where children learn all about Little Penguins\, their homes\, and how rubbish and plastic affect the colony and the marine environment. Blending science\, creativity\, and real‑world action\, kids get to explore\, make things\, and discover simple ways to help protect wildlife. \n  \n  \nBookings will open Monday 1st June 2026 \nhttps://events.humanitix.com/penguin-patrol-school-holiday-program-june  \n  \n  \nWorkshop – Learn\, Create\, Protect \nTime: 10am – 11:30am \nLocation: Port Phillip Ecocentre \nChildren will: \n\nDiscover how to identify Little Penguins through interactive\, hands‑on activities\n\n\nExplore penguin habitat and needs by designing and building their own model burrow\n\n\nInvestigate how rubbish threatens penguins and other coastal wildlife\n\n\nTake part in practical activities that inspire action\, such as sorting waste\, designing a reusable tote bag\, and transforming rubbish into something useful\n\nExcursion – Explore\, Investigate\, Take Action \nLocation: St Kilda Pier \nChildren will: \n\nVisit a real Little Penguin habitat and connect their incursion learning to the natural world\n\n\nTake part in a beach clean‑up to explore where our waste comes from and analyze what they collect\n\n\nDiscuss how everyday choices can prevent waste from reaching our beaches and harming wildlife\n\nThere are limited spaces available so get in quick! \nPlease note: \n\nIt is preferred that children attend both the workshop and the excursion.\nParents and guardians are responsible for drop‑off and pick‑up at each location.\nParents are encouraged to attend the excursion. For the incursion\, we ask that parents do not remain in the room due to capacity limits.\nAll sessions are fully supervised by Earthcare St Kilda staff and trained volunteers with Working with Children’s Check’s\, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for every child.\nThe excursion is not a guaranteed opportunity to see Little Penguins. While there is a chance of spotting one\, sightings are rare during the day. If you’re interested in seeing Little Penguins at night\, you can book a free guided tour here: https://bookings.penguins.org.au/BookingCat/Availability/?ParentCategory=STKD\nFurther details — including meeting points\, what to bring\, and what to expect — will be provided upon booking.\nFor any questions contact\, tia@earthcarestkilda.org.au
