Outreach

Our intrepid Safari Ranger is available to visit local primary, secondary and special schools to deliver exciting interactive workshops to your classes.

Our workshops act either as stand-alone or as pre-visit sessions in preparation for your pupils’ visit the zoo.

We’re always keen to engage with your teaching staff and our Ranger will be happy to discuss your individual needs before the session.

Our Safari Ranger will be equipped with interesting biofacts (such as elephant tusks, snake skins, macaw feathers, porcupine quills, penguin eggs) and in some circumstances may bring live invertebrates – but don’t worry, it’s perfectly safe!

Our Safari Ranger project is a free, in-school service kindly supported by Halliwell Jones Chester, the Philip Barker Charity, Tesco Charity Trust and Sir Julian Hodge Charitable Trust.
