Geoscience Australia’s education program promotes the importance of Earth science to school students and their teachers through face-to-face visits, workshops and classroom resources.

The Education Centre was opened by the Hon. Warren Entsch in October 1999 and was officially re-opened by Minister Canavan today.

Since it opened, the Education Centre has hosted more than 3,200 school visits for around 140,000 students from across Australia.
