Let us come to you

Our experienced staff can lead in-school workshops, following Covid-19 safety measures. We will explore your school grounds, discovering and learning about the habitats and species that live there, and discussing how to make your school even more wildlife friendly. During the pandemic we are also offering live conservation-related talks on Zoom for your class, on a wide range of topics including ‘nocturnal animals’, ‘taking action for nature’ and ‘conservation careers’.

We love the trip and come every year - all staff are excellent!
