Reptile Safety Workshops

Developed to fit with the Australian Curriculum (ACARA), Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines (QKLG) and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF)

RESTA's Reptile Safety workshops allow your students and staff have the opportunity to get up close and personal with our interactive workshops, featuring a range of non-venomous snakes and pythons, lizards, and crocodiles. 

​

Students will learn age appropriate safety and species information and they will learn how to identify different types of reptiles, discover their life- cycles, habitat and how they survive in the wild; and most importantly, learn what to do if you ever come face-to-face with a venomous one!

TESTIMONIAL

"I Christien Payne principal of Collinsville State School would like to share my belief in the importance of snake awareness and education. I strongly believe that all schools should allocate time for Radical Reptiles learning to ensure children are skilled on what they should to do if they see a snake and what not to do. I found the explicit skills taught to apply restrictive bandages to the older students was fantastic, especially that they can even as a child administer lifesaving first aid. I have received large amounts of positive feedback on our school Facebook page and face to face discussions from parents. It was pleasing to hear how their children shared the experience of handling pet snakes and other reptiles."
