Who’s Hatching on Bribie Island

Dive into a fun, interactive learning adventure at the Bribie Island Seaside Museum with Who’s Hatching on Bribie Island! On Saturday 15 April 2026 at 2:00 pm, children aged five and over, along with their parents or carers, are invited to explore the fascinating world of Bribie Island’s marine turtles. This free, facilitated school holiday program is both educational and hands-on, offering a unique chance to discover the life cycles, biology, and incredible journeys of these endangered marine giants.

Learn amazing facts about how loggerhead turtles navigate the ocean, nest, and survive in our local waters — some even swim thousands of kilometres all the way to South America! Children will also engage in a creative craft activity, helping them connect with nature while learning practical ways to protect nesting turtles and reduce coastal pollution. This event is a wonderful opportunity to inspire the next generation of turtle protectors.
