Education Visits
Bring learning to life at Marwell Zoo
Take learning beyond the classroom with an educational visit to Marwell Zoo, where animals, nature and real-world conservation create opportunities to explore, discover and learn.
From Early Years and primary through to secondary, further and higher education, we offer curriculum-linked guided sessions alongside flexible self- guided visits. We also welcome home educators and SEND groups.
Whatever the age or stage, a visit to Marwell connects learners with the natural world and the work being done to protect it – inspiring curiosity, building understanding and showing how we can all play a part in nature’s recovery.
Early Years and Primary
Embark on Expedition Marwell, an interactive zoo-based adventure with real conservation science, curriculum-linked challenges and hands-on puzzles to solve.
Secondary Education
We offer a range of curriculum-linked workshops for secondary students.
Higher Education
We offer higher education lectures, teacher training placements and special higher education group rates for self-guided park visits.
Home Education
Take advantage of our home educator ticket rates for self-guided park visits, or join us at one of our special home educator events.
Self-Guided Park Visits
If you just want to book entry to the zoo for your educational group, without any extra workshops or sessions, a self-guided park visit is for you.
