BIRTHDAY PARTIES

The Zoo provides a great venue for Children’s Birthday parties. We have a large picnic area with covered picnic tables and a substantial Play structure. Although we sell Chippies, chocolates, drinks and ice-creams, the food is a ‘bring your own birthday picnic affair’. You won’t have to go overboard on the food as the kids will be excited enough with a visit to the zoo to feed the animals and to have a pony or train ride. We have BBQs you can hire for $15.00 or you are welcome to bring your own. Alternatively, there is a great fish & chip shop only 100 metres down the road. A great family outing!
