• Join guided veterinary hospital tours
• Experience close encounters with resident wildlife, meeting dingoes, koalas and more
• Get hands on with interactive workshops on wildlife first aid and local habitats
• Learn more and help reduce vehicle-wildlife collisions, and support safer roads

Since its doors opened in 1998, WA Wildlife has paved the way in veterinary research, wildlife rehabilitation, rescue-to-release programs, biodiversity conservation, community education and volunteer programs.

This is a family friendly event, a maximum of four tickets is allocated per registration. Tickets are free, registration is essential, and spots are limited so don’t miss out on this unique member opportunity!

What you need to know:

• Parking is available onsite, on arrival register at the RAC marquee.
• Join rotating 30-minute tour groups.
• Wear comfy and enclosed shoes, RAC will supply personal protective equipment if required.

Why this matters to RAC:

At RAC, our Vision 2030, is for a safer, sustainable and connected future for Western Australians. We’re working hard to reduce the rate of people killed and seriously injured on our roads, and we’re raising awareness through our community partnerships and volunteering programs. Each year, over 800 animals are triaged at WA Wildlife who are treated for road injuries, and we’re working to reduce this statistic, through community awareness and outreach programs.

Join us to learn more, and understand how you can contribute to positive change and give back to WA communities.

Freestyle now will be facilitating an informal, fun and informative coaching session at Roleystone Skatepark for Rollerskate, Scooter, BMX and Skateboard participants. Our facilitators analyze the participants’ skill level and work from that base and assist with confidence building. It is important to not only just focus on skill building but confidence as well. By using their own skill base as a stepping stone we are able to help them advance. Our coaches speak the participant’s language and speak on their level. Our instructors relay the importance of safety, the importance of helmets and how they can minimize injuries. Freestyle Now team members will be present to offer participants technical advice, trick tips, skill development and skatepark etiquette.

Participants are split up into groups based on their skill level and what they are interested in achieving.

All participants would need their own equipment, helmet and closed in shoes. Participants with defective equipment may not be able to participate. Our coaches may be able to assist with some minor adjustments (Scooter/BMX Bar straightening, skate/rollerskate truck/wheel tightening) before the session starts if required and time permitting.

Participants under the age of 6 will be taken on their ability to understand and follow instructions and to control their apparatus.

Key points

• Participants must be wearing a helmet
• Please remember to bring some water and wear sunscreen
• Recommended for participants must be over the age of 6
