Arcare Maidstone residents visit Werribee Open Range Zoo

At Arcare Maidstone, we believe that life is full of enriching opportunities for learning, joy, and connection.

Resident stories

A Wild Day Out: Arcare Maidstone Residents Explore Werribee Zoo 🦁🐾

The day kicked off with an exhilarating safari tour through Werribee Zoo’s open-range exhibits. Residents had the chance to witness a variety of wildlife in their natural environments. From the regal lions to the sleek cheetahs, the majestic giraffes, and the playful rhinos, the safari experience offered a glimpse into the lives of some of the planet’s most captivating creatures. 🦁🐆

After the safari, our residents enjoyed a leisurely stroll to the zoo’s more intimate enclosures, where they were able to see gorillas, meerkats, and kangaroos up close. These encounters provided not only an opportunity for education but also sparked wonder and excitement among all attendees. Werribee Zoo’s diverse range of animals, from native Australian species to exotic wildlife, offered a unique experience that promoted appreciation and understanding of the animal kingdom.
