🐍 Where Are They Now? — Sarah Banks (OH 2024)
Since she can remember, Sarah Banks has always loved animals. During her Year 10 work experience, she discovered her dream job at The Funky Farm, a wildlife sanctuary that operates through guided tours only. Specialising in small, interactive groups and proudly inclusive for guests with special needs. The Funky Farm has been the perfect place for Sarah to share her passion for our incredible wildlife.
Sarah loves seeing the excitement on visitors’ faces as they conquer their fear of snakes or learn a cool new fact. The role has helped her gain so much confidence in public speaking and knowledge. Now, at just 19, she’s leading her own tours and sharing her deep knowledge of native animals.
Her growing love for reptiles even inspired her to buy her first pet, a snake! Alongside her work at The Funky Farm, Sarah is currently studying Zoology at Monash University, continuing to learn about our amazing native species with new like-minded friends
A dream career in the making! Thanks for staying connected, Sarah.
