Burra at the Australian Museum

Ages 2+
The Australian Museum has opened a brand-new learning and play space named Burra (eel) for children of all ages to enjoy.

The new state-of-the-art education space immerses visitors in Western science and First Nations knowledges.

The space also offers the opportunity to explore at your own pace or join a free pop-up event. Children are invited to touch, listen and see while exploring the giant burra, sensory walls and interactive play zones.

Children can trace the migration of burra along estuaries and rivers, across rockpools and out to sea. Families will learn about the environment, the Australian Museum’s science, and the importance of caring for Country and each other.

General entry to the Australian Museum and Burra is free. Find out more here.
