World Rivers Day- Meet the Scientists

Have you ever wondered just how salty the water in the Swan Canning Riverpark is, how many dolphins inhabit its waters, or why some birds travel hundreds of kilometres to visit the Riverpark every year? Then come and celebrate this year’s World Rivers Day at Point Walter, by connecting with local scientists to learn about the research, monitoring and conservation efforts occurring in our very own Swan Canning Riverpark. Through interactive sessions with scientists from the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions, Murdoch University, BirdLife and the WA Fairy Tern Network, participants will gain insight into three different fields of work related to the Riverpark. Participants will rotate through the interactive sessions, then finish the day with lunch and an opportunity to ask the scientists any burning questions.

This event is a great opportunity for those who have an interest in the environment and a curiosity for science, and would be well suited to people aged 16+. Children under 16 years of age are welcome to attend, however the content and activities are not considered suitable for children under 12 years of age.
