River Rangers

Parramatta Park

Sydney & Surrounds

Grab your explorer kit and join our Education Rangers for a riverside adventure packed with discovery, wildlife encounters and water-filled fun.

Follow the river’s edge as you search for clues, tracks and signs of the creatures that call the waterway home. From birds and bats to fish, reptiles and tiny water bugs, you’ll uncover the hidden connections that make the river come alive.

Then roll up your sleeves and use dipnets to investigate the fascinating creatures living below the surface and discover what they can tell us about the health of the river. When the adventure heats up, it’s time for splash-filled water games and team challenges designed to keep everyone cool while learning how every drop counts.

Adventure Highlights:
• River Detective Challenge – follow the shoreline and uncover the clues that reveal which plants and animals rely on the river.
• River Safari Dipnetting – explore the underwater world and discover the amazing creatures hiding beneath the surface.
• Water Games – take on fun team challenges guaranteed to cool you down on a summer’s day!

This action-packed riverside adventure will have kids investigating, splashing, exploring and learning all at the same time.
