Hertfordshire Zoo School Workshops

Outreach workshops run from KS1 through to Post 16 and cover a range of unique and engaging content.

Fur, Feathers and Scales, Roars and Claws and Remarkable Rainforests are some of our most popular primary outreach education sessions. Captive breeding programmes and in-situ conservation are popular sessions undertaken by Sixth From education groups and FE colleges.

Our education sessions use a range of 3D printed replica skulls and conservation items such as lion tracking collars.

Hertfordshire Zoo is a conservation charity that is committed to protecting global biodiversity.

We want to share the wonder of wildlife with all of our visitors, including school groups, empowering students to support both wildlife here in the UK and species across the globe.

All of the education team have enhanced DBS checks.

Outreach sessions are best delivered to a single class at a time with a maximum of 30 students.

However, we will consider assembly style sessions for more than one class.

Outreach sessions are designed by our experienced education team and are based on a range of interesting topics. From sessions looking at rainforests to sessions dedicated to big cats, there is a variety of sessions to meet your students needs and are linked to the curriculum.

All sessions can be found on our education pages on our website.

“Hertfordshire Zoo delivered an outstanding careers-focused workshop which was full of practical advice and interactive opportunities for our students to learn more about a career in conservation.  The lively and engaging delivery was underpinned with excellent content providing our students with a sound understanding of the variety of job roles on offer and the skills and qualities needed to succeed within the industry.”
