BACKGROUND:
In 2008 Millennium Kids interviewed hundreds of young people about what they liked and what the did not like about their community – Climate Change was a major concern in every community we worked in. So in 2009 hundreds of young people have come together to create THE BIG SWITCH EXPERIMENT – a research and action program run by young people.

On Sunday 5th of April, the Millennium Kids went to Native ARC and looked at some of the different animals that were being kept there, but first we walked down a path and looked for animal tracks and holes. We also talked about what would need improving in that environment and how animals have been killed and their eggs destroyed. Then we looked at the animals inside. We looked at a bobtail, a bandicoot, and a carpet snake. Then we went outside and looked at the bat boxes hanging on the trees and counted how many there were. We also looked at the birds, and gave the pelicans and swans clean water and baths. It was very intresting and the Millenium Kids learnt a lot about the animals.
