Some furry friends stopped by Mooroopna Education and Activity Centre recently.
Tiny Tails hosted a meet-and-greet for children on Wednesday, July 10 to get up close with some cute creatures, including marsupials, lizards, pythons and more.
Children also had the chance to hold and feed them.
The News photographer Rechelle Zammit headed down to MEAC to capture all of the school holiday fun.
