Every person can make a difference in the lives of animals and that begins by learning about their welfare and advocating for their welfare, whether they’re classified as companions or livestock.

RSPCA NSW does not have set fees for our incursions. However, as a non-government, not-for-profit charity, we kindly ask for a gold-coin donation from each participant, or a collection of items for our shelter animals such as toys and food. Schools are also invited to involve the whole school community by holding fundraising events for RSPCA NSW animals in need. How many students can an RSPCA NSW school incursion cater for? RSPCA NSW can cater our program to any group size, including single classes or stage groups. How can I get in contact with RSPCA NSW about an education program?
