Education
We place a great emphasis on
Education to both school and the
general public visiting the Park.
We offer many activities to schools
which is relevant to their Key Stage
work and is based on learning whilst
having fun!
Teachers have the opportunity to
visit the Park prior to an
educational visit and will receive a
full pack when they make a booking.
The day of the visit is tailored to
group requirements and can include
wildlife behaviour, how we help our
environment, nature trails and lots
of other subjects.
The itinerary is packed full of
activities when children can take
part in discussion and ask questions.
The group will have the use of a
study room equipped with materials
for project work and a Guide will
look after you during the course of
your visit.

We pride ourselves on our Education programme.
Relevant to any Key Stage and project being studied it can be adapted and differentiated to suit all abilities.
Teachers are welcome to visit the Park prior to the school visit.
We provide two study rooms for the children during their visit .
Teachers and pupils leave after a whole day out, full of information and very tired, having spent most of the day outside.
Many return with their parents to be at such close proximity to the animals once again.
Visiting Groups
We offer a fully guided tour and we will structure your day to meet the specific requirements of your group.
Whilst our talks and tours relate to aspects of the National Curriculum we aim to enthuse and inspire the children about wildlife and the natural environment in general.
A visit would help the children to develop their understanding of habitats, adaptation, colour and shape, night and day, life processes, classification, and food chains. They would become more aware of issues surrounding environmental change and the need for conservation.
For our full Teacher’s Welcome Pack containing information to help with the planning of a visit, background information about the animals and a full risk assessment PDF click here or by telephone on

Fully Guided Visit

Centre will be available for your use, where your group will be able to leave belongings and have lunch if required.
If you wish to extend your visit, you may use the Education Centre for a teaching session to reinforce the experiences gained from the tour.
This session should be teacher- led, but your Guide will be on hand for advice and to support your activities.
Pencils, crayons, etc are available for your use.
