At Natureworks we love the natural world and are passionate about nature conservation. We recognise the need to preserve nature for future generations to enjoy. Many of our sculptures highlight the importance of biodiversity and feature extinct or threatened species.
To promote biodiversity and turn children onto the wonders of the natural world, Natureworks creates natural replicas and play structures that fire the imagination.

We wish to respectfully acknowledge with honour the First Peoples of our Mother Earth, our ancestral elders of this ancient country of past, present and future who are the traditional custodians of all states and territories where we live and work. We acknowledge their continuing living spiritual cultural heritage, the sacred connection to land, sea, sky, community, country and all living things.
