Education Programs at the Gardens
Education Services offers programs for Preschool to year 12. We offer a range of fun and engaging activities relating to our biggest feature, our display of one-third of Australia’s Native Plants, as well as Environmental Science.
Tertiary education is undertaken through the Centre for Plant Biodiversity Research and the Australian National Herbarium in the form of Botanical Internships and graduate student supervision.
