Education
School Programs
Informative education talks and demonstrations are available through our sponsor, Rabbit Run, with the profits donated to our charity. The sessions are designed to suit the interests of pre-school, primary school, after school and secondary school groups. The information sessions include general information about rabbit care and practical demonstrations to assist in the understanding of the needs of rabbits as pets. For older children, information sessions can include laws and policies regarding animal care and animal welfare issues.

Public Programs
Rabbit Run also conducts individual and small group information sessions
about rabbit care for the general public, retail pet suppliers, vets and
their bunny clients, animal shelters and bunny owners. The information
has been developed in the interest of rabbits, to ensure that all new
and prospective rabbit owners are given the correct information about
how to care for their pet. Additionally, to ensure that the needs of bunnies
are met and that new owners are informed as to what to expect regarding
responsible bunny ownership and care.
The information sessions are tailored to suit the interest of your particular group and can include:
- picking up small and large rabbits
- diet for young and mature rabbits
- common health problems
- rabbits and children, dogs, cats and other rabbits
- types, size and age of rabbits
- long haired rabbit needs
- vaccinations and desexing of rabbits
- hutches, housing
- litter training
- bunny behaviour, what to expect when the bunny goes home
Sessions can be tailored to suit and the cost of the information sessions will vary depending on your requirements. Bookings are essential, please contact Rabbit Run for further information or to book your session
