A free visit to the zoo is a must do for Victorian families this school holidays, with opportunities to learn and enjoy the wildlife and experiences Zoos Victoria has to offer, including newborn Asian elephants.
The State Government is making sure no child misses out on a visit to the zoo with free entry to Melbourne Zoo, Werribee Open Range Zoo, Healesville Sanctuary and Kyabram Fauna Park. The Kids Go Free program operates on school holidays, weekends and Victorian public holidays.
There is always something new to see on a zoo visit, including the new-look habitat for the Giant Tortoise at Melbourne Zoo. The new habitat is nearly double the size with a new heated/filtered pool and more topography variation for better exercise and health.
