Families with children can make the most of the school holiday period with nature-based storytelling sessions, creative workshops, garden discovery activities, and spotlighting tours to observe Albany’s nocturnal wildlife — all designed to spark curiosity and connection with the outdoors.

The Albany Public Library will also host a series of film screenings and other activities focusing on sustainability and conservation. Climate and Sustainability Project Officer Kylie Outhwaite emphasised the importance of the festival in fostering environmental awareness.

“Through engaging activities and thoughtful discussions, we hope to inspire greater appreciation for how trees support biodiversity and enhance our urban spaces.

“By participating in the festival, individuals and families can learn simple and practical ways to care for our natural environment now and for future generations.”
