University helps celebrate Steve Irwin Day
The University of the Sunshine Coast today celebrated the inaugural Steve Irwin Day.
Many staff dressed in khaki and donated $91 in gold coins for the occasion which honoured Steve’s achievements and supported the efforts of Australia Zoo's Wildlife Warriors Worldwide.
Steve and Terri Irwin both hold honorary awards from the University of the Sunshine Coast.
Steve was awarded as an honorary Senior Fellow of the University in 2000. Terri received the same award at this year's Graduation ceremony in May.
Both received the award in recognition of their contributions to the Sunshine Coast region and wildlife conservation.
You can watch Terri Irwin's acceptance speech at the 2007 Graduation ceremony on the web. More information on Steve Irwin Day is available on the website: www.steveirwinday.org.
