Educational program

There are courses on offer for kindergartens and primary schools, either in the form of guided tours or hands on learning. We really encourage teachers to actively take part on class trips and be readily accessible to the zoo’s staff. We therefore ask teachers to prepare well for their visit, so that the field trip can be as productive as possible education-wise.
