The Insectarium of Victoria and the Victorian Institute of Invertebrate Sciences specialises in providing educational programs for students from Primary to University levels as well as guided interpretation of its facility and displays to all its visitors.
Since its opening in 1993, over 200,000 students have experienced the Insectarium of Victoria and many of them have gone on to become professional entomologists or arachnologists in their own right.
We also provide Work Experience Placements throughout the year for all Secondary Students interested in the science.
Please see our Education Section for further details and booking options.
The Insectarium of Victoria is often featured in the print, radio and national television media as one of the most unique museum experiences available to both students and the general public within Australia.
Today, the Insectarium of Victoria continues to expand its collections and displays and is constantly looking into ways of enhancing its message of invertebrate and insect awareness to our visitors.
