Primary and EYFS

A visit to our zoo offers a fantastic day of experiences that will bring your curriculum topic to life: your pupils can observe, hear, and sense living examples of the plants, animals, and habitats that you will be talking about back at school.

Meet and greet

We will meet you at our coach turning circle as you arrive, and give a short welcome with zoo gossip, instructions, and a challenge for your pupils. This is delivered outdoors and ensures your pupils get the best from their day!
