In 2020 and 2021 council asked your for your ideas for the re-design of the Queens Park Environmental Education Centre upgrade.
Council's goal is for a centre that:
- is an interactive space
- has environmental themes relevant to life in Ipswich
- is for all ages and abilities
We are currently reviewing your ideas together with the environmental education review, that is currently being finalised. Some smaller updates to the centre have begun which you can check out next time you visit.
We will advise of any further information on upgrades once the review is completed.
What are your ideas on how we can make this the best environmental education centre?
This survey has now been closed.

The possum boxes on display are great - but why not sell them and bee hotels and other ways to interact with nature in backyards.

Connections to the council nursery (like samples for sale) and ideas about local Bush Tucker native plants would be great too.

It would be great to have a frequently updated table of children's and adult books, stuffed toys + other conservation related stuff on sale.

The murals/buttons/trees are excellent. Maybe add a 'treasure hunt' style page for children to tick off animals/plants as they find them.

A display such as touch screen with information on feeding wildlife and why it is often unnecessary to feed except during bad conditions.

The centre needs a refresh, would be great if there could be different exhibitions/pop-ups from time to time.

I love things you can take a photo with - whether it's a life-sized animal, or an interactive frame.

Having information that can easily tell me how to protect the environment more in my everyday life. Interactive displays.

We've been coming for years and the displays are the same. The kids still love it! But as adults it would be great for rotating displays.
