Stop in for breakfast, lunch or dinner or just drop in for some takeaway food, a hot drink or a nice cold ice cream. Try our range of old style boiled lollies or make a selection from our lolly shop with a large range of chocolates & lollies. You can even have your next function/party at the Giant Koala in the newly landscaped courtyard fed with our famous camp oven roasted meats.

Make use of our BBQ, and bring your own meat and have a picnic out in our courtyard or among the animals in the zoo. The Giant Koala has a large range of gifts and souvenirs for all ages so that you can take a soft toy koala away with you as a reminder of your visit.

The new owners of The Giant Koala, Rob & Julie-Anne, have recently added a zoo which is home to two very affectionate koalas and other native Australian animals and some farm animals.

You can have your photo taken with our Koalas for a small fee. We have just completed a children’s “Petting Zoo” where they can pat animals such as rabbits, guinea pigs, baby turkeys, chickens.

The Giant Koala made an appearance on the Paul Hogan and Shane Jacobson movie Charlie and Boots and was featured in the Telstra Bigpond advertisements this year.

A series of eight “Big Things” in Australia has just been released on Redhead Matches and The Giant Koala was selected to be part of this series and you can find them in Supermarkets now.

National Treasure combines stage drama with a documentary style to tell the stories behind China’s relics. Cultural relics which once laid in museums have come alive. Through new forms of cooperation between China’s museums and television stations, a new way of presenting historic treasures has been created to promote (提升) the protection of cultural relics and traditional culture.

These shows have increased the public’s interest in cultural relics and motivated them to go to history museums and read historical books. They give examples to show Chinese museums’ shift from the protection, collection and research of relics to presenting national treasures and educating the public.

The idea of bringing ancient relics to life was suggested by President Xi Jinping in a speech delivered at the UNESCO Headquarters in Paris in March 2014 and has since been made a reality. In addition to television shows, museums are also cooperating with companies to develop creative cultural products based on cultural relics.

To further promote the full use of cultural relics, all fields of society including the government, museums and companies should work together. The government has already come up with a series of policies (政策) in recent years to promote the development of creative cultural products and the proper use of cultural relics. Those working at museums should not only research relics but also communicate the stories behind them to the public.

【推荐3】A young Los Angeles actor in need of a second job to pay his bills has come up with a brilliant way to add his income — people walking.

Chuck McCarthy originally considered becoming a dog walker to earn some extra cash, but soon realized that the job required more than walking dogs on a leash (皮带). “I didn’t want to pick up dog poop (粪便), and that’s kind of what you are really being paid for, for dog walking,” he said. But people don’t usually poop when they take a walk, so Chuck realized there was money to be made walking people around Los Angeles instead.

It might sound like a joke, but the People Walker, as he calls himself, is very serious about his new job. For $7 per mile, he offers to walk with customers around L.A., listening to their problems or simply making conversation and offering them a sense of safety.

His services are aimed at people who need motivational help to go walking, those who don’t feel safe walking alone in some areas, and those who are afraid that people might see them walking by themselves and think that they have no friends.

“I wear my The People Walker shirt upon request and on the first walk with a new customer, so they can be 100% sure it’s me,” McCarthy says. However, he admits that some people don’t agree to this policy, as they don’t necessarily want everyone to know that they are being walked.

Believe it or not, McCarthy’s business has been very successful. He already has another five people walkers employed, covering various areas, like downtown L.A., Hollywood, Eagle Rock, Las Feliz or Fairefax. Once he posted signs around the city, his phone started ringing and customers began rolling in. And with all the free publicity he has been getting in the press lately, he has been overwhelmed (不堪重负的) with requests.
