Zebra Finch Project

This unique opportunity connects classroom learning with a hands-on experience in breeding finches, while students explore the wonders of biology, science, mathematics and design technology. The competition encourages teamwork and engages in critical thinking and creative problem-solving.

We invite schools to participate in a unique opportunity to create a cross-curricular project. Students, with the guidance of the Ekka’s Poultry Committee, will explore the life cycles, habitats and care of finches while observing their breeding process.

With a strong focus on fostering a curiosity for nature, students will learn about animal care, create habitats, track breeding patterns and develop an understanding of ecosystems and the role of species conservation.
