Education Centre

• Book a visit

Discover geoscience through curriculum-linked, hands-on activities that keep students captivated, focused and looking for more.

Our Education Centre is an ideal school excursion destination. It provides engaging activities to a range of school-aged audiences and highlights geoscience as an interesting and relevant part of our lives.

"A great range of activities, well organised and engaging for the students."

"Challenging but allowing for success. The students had to put in effort."

"Very age-appropriate and interesting. The interactive hands-on activities were highly motivating"

We provide students with the opportunity to explore the many aspects of geoscience using scientific instruments, computers and first-class teaching materials.

Our Education Centre is staffed by a small team of professional geoscience educators. As well as the general school programs, we can also tailor programs for a more specific audience.

Geoscience Australia also has a superb collection of world-class minerals, rocks, fossils, geoscience maps and historical equipment on display in its public foyer.
