Education Visit Testimonials

“Thank you so much for helping us learn about the animals and how to take care of them.”
We thought it was really interesting to look for the clues – poo, footprints and signs like the rustling leaves.  You made it so much fun for us and we had the best day. We loved learning new facts and new words about the animals and are excited to be conservationists.

“What a great experience I had at Marwell yesterday when I came along as a parent helper for my daughter’s class.”
I was so impressed by the guide who really engaged the children. She clearly captured their full attention and was brilliant with them all. The class had a wonderful day and I think we all learned quite a lot, not to mention having the amazing treat of seeing a one-day-old rhino

“We had the best visit today at Marwell zoo.”
Our Expedition team Laura and Lindsay were fantastic with our class of children. Their enthusiasm and knowledge of the animals was endless! They were also so helpful when lots of our Reception aged children wanted to stop for a snack and drink. They found a shaded spot and continued informing the children all about the animals in a fun and engaging manner. Thanks so much”

“Thank you so much for our school visit today.”
The pupils and teachers thought the whole experience was excellent – an amazing variety and number of different animals and it will help build their science knowledge. They were particularly interested in the endangered species and have come back to school with many of them keen to go again in the summer holidays. The staff they met were very knowledgeable and friendly. A fantastic day out (despite the odd rain shower!). Thank you and we hope to come again next year.”
