Students will not only experience the thrills and delights of the Gold Coast theme parks, but also participate in a variety of education programs designed to learn about environment, conservation and animal behaviours. Teachers can select from a range of self-guided education programs and classroom style talks, tailored to suit the needs of the group.
This itinerary is based on return coach travel.
A mid-morning departure for overnight travel to the Gold Coast, stopping where and when necessary.
Arrive in the Gold Coast and head straight to Wet’n’Wild to get the kinks of long-distance travel out of your system. Travel on to your accommodation to check in for the next three nights.
After breakfast transfer to your choice of either Movieworld or Seaworld, and enjoy a full day at a Gold Coast theme park.
After breakfast travel to iFly for indoor skydiving. The iFly wind tunnel teaches students about gravity, mass, drag and terminal velocity. Students will conduct experiments with objects in the wind tunnel as well as participate in a lecture about the maths, science, design and technology behind it all. Students will then have the opportunity to defy gravity by flying.
This afternoon visit the Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary, Gold Coast's leading native wildlife and coastal rainforest experience with hundreds of native Australian animals on display in natural bushland and rainforest surroundings. (Optional activity at an additional cost is the Treetop Challenge - 11 zip lines with all safety equipment supplied. Qualified supervisors are present throughout to ensure safety at all times. Closed in shoes must be worn.)
After breakfast the day is under the guidance of your teachers. Suggested options include beach activities, shopping or sports including surfing lessons and kayaking.
