AUSTRALIA DAY – SPECIAL COVERAGE<br />

Do something unique<br />

Five great ways to celebrate our national day – from waterslides and wake<br />

NICOLA BARTON<br />

Whether it’s a game of cricket,<br />

BBQ or day out with the<br />

family, we all have our ways of<br />

celebrating what makes us Australian on<br />

<strong>January</strong> 26.<br />

Whilst this year’s events are slightly<br />

more restricted due to COVID-19, there’s<br />

still plenty of things to see and do across<br />

Greater Western Sydney that’s bound to<br />

get you in the Aussie Day spirit, whilst<br />

keeping the whole family entertained.<br />

So grab your esky, zinc and a pair of<br />

thongs for our top five things to do in<br />

western Sydney on Australia Day.<br />

Get up close and personal with our<br />

native wildlife<br />

What better way to celebrate what makes<br />

us Australian than to explore our unique<br />

and magnificent native creatures.<br />

The Sydney Zoo at Bungarribee is a great<br />

day out for families, couples, friends and<br />

the like.<br />

Here you can see a huge range of our<br />

native furry friends like koalas and wallabies<br />

or the not so cuddly such as echidnas,<br />

spiders and reptiles.<br />

Pack a picnic lunch or enjoy the Tiger<br />

Pool Cafe or Lion Deck Cafe.<br />

There’s also loads of exotic animals from<br />

Africa and Asia to see.<br />

If you’re wanting to get a bit more up<br />

close and personal, Featherdale Sydney<br />

Wildlife Park specialises in Australian<br />

native wildlife and birds.<br />

Cables Wake Park is a great place to celebrate Australia Day.<br />
