More about Primary Schools
At Wild Science, we offer a dynamic and imaginative approach designed specifically for primary school students. We ensure they remain captivated as they delve into the fascinating worlds of Science and Animals. Our extensive range of topics enables a seamless connection to the subjects being taught in the classroom, enhancing the educational experience.
Our interactive sessions effectively allow children to internalise the facts and concepts learned during lessons. Research shows that many children absorb information most effectively through experiential learning, and our programs cater to this learning style. By incorporating live animals and engaging science experiments, we create hands-on learning experiences that are particularly advantageous for young minds.
During our sessions, children have the unique opportunity to observe animal behaviour up close. They can gently touch the skin or fur of various species, listen to the sounds they produce, and witness firsthand the exciting moments of scientific discoveries, such as chemical reactions. This immersive approach fosters curiosity and encourages critical thinking as children engage with the material in a tangible and hands-on manner. At Wild Science, we aim to spark a lifelong love of learning and inspire the next generation of scientists and animal enthusiasts.
Animals
Kids are naturally curious about animals, often asking various questions and pondering what goes on in their everyday lives. Infuse your classroom with this unique learning opportunity and observe how captivated the children become.
Why book animals to come to your school? Animals can teach young children many valuable life qualities. Being close and personal with animals can help children develop their ability to identify the emotional and physical needs of animals. While also providing the lesson of being gentle, patient, and thoughtful in our sessions. But most importantly, making learning fun!
Wild Science offers a wide range of topics suited to what you are learning in the curriculum and can incorporate your learning objectives into our sessions, helping you combine our animal-filled day with your previous lessons.
Can we only pick one topic? No! It is not necessary to select a single topic. We can offer a variety of animal-related subjects for your day. Each class can explore different topics based on the year of study and the specific curriculum we can deliver.
Science
Transform your students into wacky scientists for a day! They’ll dive into exciting science experiments that blend learning with fun, helping them explore the fascinating world of science. These activities are entertaining and provide a wealth of advantages that support your student’s growth in various ways. From igniting their curiosity to boosting their critical thinking abilities, here’s why science experiments are essential for kids of every age. Participating in science experiences sparks a natural inquisitiveness in children and provides numerous benefits. Improving their critical thinking, developing motor skills, boosting confidence, and inspiring your students to become future scientists and make memories that will last a lifetime.
