ANIMAL WORKSHOPS FOR SCHOOLS

Ventura Events educational animal encounters help bring education to life and are a great way of putting learning into perspective. There is a whole range of various different talks and presentations which have been designed by their educational team to meet the needs of the national curriculum and beyond. Our educational animal encounters are excellent for all age groups and meet the demands of a variety of different education levels ranging from nurseries and primary schools through to higher level education.

Educational animal encounters provide pupils with the chance to touch, hold and learn about a fantastic variety of exotic animals  and wildlife artifacts. Animals include various amphibians, reptiles, birds and mammals.

  "Thank you so much, I really appreciated you creating a teeth and diet presentation especially for us - it really put all our classroom work into perspective for the pupils. It was a great way to end our topic and all the children loved the animals and learnt a lot." Miss Tucker- The Priory School, Hampshire.
