Summer in Australia can be tough — for people and wildlife. From scorching heat to bushfires, animals face challenges that can put their survival at risk.
Our free Wildlife in an Aussie Summer resource helps students explore these real-life issues safely and meaningfully. With ready-to-use slides, discussion prompts, and practical activities, it shows how students can notice signs of heat stress, understand the impacts of extreme weather, and learn ways to help local wildlife.
Perfect for lessons, quick activities, or keeping on hand whenever students’ curiosity sparks questions about the world outside.
