This was a wonderful opportunity for our winners to get up close and personal with some of Australia's most fascinating wildlife. The Sanctuary's mission is to protect, respect and conserve our environment and wildlife, by education and connecting people with nature.

Lone Pine collaborates with universities, government, students and other reputable organisations, and over the years has contributed to hundreds of wildlife research projects.

Students had the opportunity to see a variety of different native species, watch a sheep dog show and even feed kangaroos and emus.
