The Australian Museum (AM) and the Botanic Gardens of Sydney, two of Australia’s oldest and esteemed science institutions, are partnering to celebrate National Science Week with Sydney Science Trail (SST) events from 9 – 16 August 2025.
We are recruiting the help of around 100 volunteers to help run these special events. If you are interested in joining our SST volunteer team, please carefully read the SST 2025 Event Volunteer Information Sheet before completing the application form.
Sydney Science Trail includes two key components: a five-day school education program and two Community Days. The events for the Monday - Friday school program take place at the Australian Museum and Royal Botanic Garden Sydney. One of the Community Days is held at the AM on Saturday 9 August and the other occurs at the Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan (ABG) on Saturday 16 August.
Applications to volunteer will close at midnight Sunday 20 July unless our team is filled earlier, so please apply below to ensure you don’t miss out.
