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 £9 per child - and attending adults go free! Not to mention, that price includes your choice of classroom session, guided tour, or animal meet & greet...

 

Please note: There are no guaranteed animals for these sessions, and we cannot take requests. We will always match the animals used based on the age of the children and the topics being covered.
