Conservation Education
We are passionate about teaching future conservationists about the importance of global biodiversity and how we can help protect the planet.
Conservation Education
Conservation education is an integral part of Drusillas and is incorporated within our company mission statement: “Our mission is to create an outstanding visitor experience that engages and educates children about animals and their environment, whilst also providing them with a fun and exciting day out in safe surroundings”.
Furthermore at Drusillas we agree that conservation education encompasses all learning opportunities, experiences, and activities for all ages and diversities of audiences. It is not confined solely to schools or education focused purely on children. We conduct education lessons for over 13,000 learners each year covering topics from rainforests to conservation. Teachers, if you want to join our education programmes, find out more below
The Discovery Centre
The importance of conservation is highlighted at Drusillas in the Discovery Centre. At weekends and during school holidays, Drusillas volunteers bring out an array of animal artefacts for visitors to see and touch. Many of the artefacts come from endangered species and are on loan from HM Revenue & Customs, so they can be used to raise awareness and educate. These artefacts are also used in some education sessions for school groups.
