Term 3: The Three Little Endangered Animals

PRIMARY P TO YEAR 7
This entirely interactive, installation based production empowers the audience to work alongside three of Australia’s most loved animals.

Bilby, Cassowary and their friend Dugong are content building their homes when they are interrupted by a deafening voice, “I’ll huff and I’ll puff and a-rat-a-tat-tat until I destroy your habitat!”

Play, see, touch and learn with Bilby, Cassowary and Dugong. Can we work together to save their disappearing habitats and friends?

Explore the world of The Three Little Pigs Endangered Animals and discover real present day Aussie battlers.
