About this event

World Rivers Day falls on the fourth Sunday of September, a worldwide celebration of waterways and everything that lives in and around them. On Sunday 27 September, meet us at Turtle Lake at 12 o'clock! Find out more about the ducks, kingfishers, platypus, turtles and water dragons who call our River and Lake home. Take part in the Turtle Lake Expedition & Scavenger Hunt to win prizes! The Mini Goats Promenade makes its daily walk down to the water too, so the goats will be marking the day with you. And with the spring school holidays in full swing, it is a very easy Sunday to say yes to. Fairhill Farmyard Adventures runs through the morning, baby goat cuddles are at 12.30pm in the Kids' Barn, and the Gardens Café is open all day.
