What To Expect From Your Visit
We are the UKs only crocodile zoo. Therefore, you will see the largest collection of crocodiles and alligators in the UK, and one of the most significant collections in the world.
These animals are not only our passion, but they offer an exciting way for us to explain many aspects of biology, physiology, habitats, adaptations, evolution, ecology and behaviour. In fact, because we are experts with these amazing animals, we can use them to illustrate many parts of the school curriculum.
We always want to use our time together to reinforce what the children have been learning in class at school, but we also want them to gain a true appreciation for crocodiles and the role they play in their world. We are lucky to have such a collection of animals to use as our classroom here at Crocodiles of the World.
Our Learning Sessions and Workshops are held in our recently upgraded Education Room. This room is complete with our 84 inch Smartscreen, which makes the presentations even more fun and interactive than ever.
During your stay, there are also the daily talks and feeding demonstrations within the zoo, so the children will get to experience these, guided by one of our Education Team who will be able to answer any of your questions.
You will:
- Have your own hands-on session with a crocodile or alligator
- Guided tour of the zoo, depending on group numbers
- A tailor-made workshop to reinforce classroom lessons
- Hold a snake or lizard
- Have plenty of photo opportunities
- Have a fun, entertaining, but informative visit
- Enjoy the expertise of our friendly staff
