Father Geoff Darwin knows more about nature than anyone in Sylvania. He is a famous botanist and spends his days in the forest searching for flowers and plants. He is totally devoted to his work and loves nothing better than discovering an interesting new fern or orchid.

Mother Shirley Darwin carefully draws the plants and flowers her husband brings home each day. Her sketches are so detailed that once it took her over a week to draw a simple buttercup. But thankfully Geoff always thinks his wife’s illustrations are worth waiting for.

Sister Katie Darwin is very active. As one of the best gymnasts in Sylvania she spends her days swinging on bars, balancing on beams and somersaulting over the floor. Her favourite event is the exercise horse as she loves to show off her strong arms!
