SCHOOL VISITS PROGRAMME

For Key Stage 1 and 2

6 to 11 years

We provide a wide range of activities supporting the national curriculum and have worked with local primary schools in natural sciences, conservation design and technology, life cycles and discovery.

Our activity days usually run from 10am - 2.30 pm. This can be tailored  to suit your school time table

General cost of a school visit is £6.00 per child up to 40 children - we are currently offering one free visit per school (supported by Heritage Lottery Fund) from Autumn 2009 to Summer 2011.

 

 
Although we provide a structured visit to Naturezones our aim is to encourage the children to learn, explore and discover in their own ways. We have a wide range of activities to choose from. There are two main wildlife habitats - wildflower meadows and Carr woodland. You can choose to cover a range of activities from the habitats below or concentrate on one specific habitat.  Activities last approx 45 minutes
