Contents OUR achievements – Strategic Priority 1A Specific Outcome Measure Result 3a (Guilfoyle’s Volcano education programs) Two programs launched in August 2010 Two education programs – Water Plants Life and Water Management – were launched in August 2010 targeting primary and secondary students respectively. 3b (Australian Garden Stage 2 visitor programs) Programs ready for delivery in the 2011–12 financial year High visitor satisfaction with educational experience of the Australian Garden Stage 2 as measured in exit surveys This measure will be reported on in 2012 after the Australian Garden Stage 2 opens. 4 (Education Service programs) Numbers of programs booked by Early Childhood and Catholic Education Sector continue to grow At RBG Melbourne, 171 participants took part in Early Childhood professional development programs, compared with 112 participants in the previous year, an increase of 52 per cent. In addition, a total of 5,204 students from the Catholic Education sector booked programs, compared with 3,921 students in the previous year, an increase of 32 per cent. At RBG Cranbourne, participants in Early Childhood programs increased from 608 in 2009–10 to 797 in 2010–11. The number of students attending from the Catholic Education sector dropped from 1,133 in 2009–10 to 791 in 2010–11. This is in line with a general decrease in visitation to RBG Cranbourne, likely due to the impact of Australian Garden Stage 2 construction works. 5a (Schools access program) At least 15 schools visit the Royal Botanic Gardens as part of this access program Thirty-two schools visited RBG Melbourne as part of the access program, more than doubling the target and highlighting the popularity of the program. 5b (Marginalised schools program) Test program successfully developed and trialled according to the agreed program goals Demonstrable increase in access to RBG Cranbourne programs for marginalised schools Application for roll-out funding invited from Lord Mayor’s Charitable Foundation (LMCF) A test program was developed and will be trialled in 2011–12. Initial communications established strong interest among target schools. The Royal Botanic Gardens was invited to apply to the LMCF for the 2012 funding round. page 40
