Mini Park Rangers Term 1 2023

Mini Park Rangers are invited to join the Park Rangers at Sydney Olympic Park for stories, song, games and exploration in our Parklands.

Mini Park Rangers enjoy a new theme or story each week. Our program aims to provide opportunities for discovery, creativity, problem-solving, and questioning with a focus on our Parklands, our environment, and how we interact with the world around us.

We aspire to explore the sights, scents, sounds and textures of our Parklands, accompanied by stories and rhymes with important take home messages. 
Participants will be given opportunities for play, enquiry and investigation in a fun environment.
