Schools Packages
Our Educational Packages
Looking to give your class a hands-on lesson about animals, the environment, geography, and biology? Hobbledown's the place!
There are a variety of options available for schools, tailored to early years learning, as well as Key Stages 1, 2 and 3 of the National Schools Curriculum.
Plus, our school packages are a great deal. While regular day tickets can cost up to £20, our school packages start from only £11 per child - and attending adults go free! Not to mention, that price includes your choice of classroom session, guided tour, or animal meet & greet...
