More about School Fair and Fetes

Looking to make your school fair or fete a standout event? Invite Wild Science to bring a mix of animals and hands-on science that will spark curiosity and create memories for students, parents, and teachers alike.

At Wild Science, we know every event is unique, so we tailor our programs to your needs. Whether you want to showcase amazing animals or host science demonstrations, we will deliver a fantastic experience for all ages.

From hands-on activities that spark curiosity to presentations that ignite a love of learning, we will ensure your event is educational and fun. Let us help you create moments that your school community will remember!

Animals- If you want to bring the magic of animals to your fairs, we can make that happen! Imagine getting up close and personal with a variety of creatures, each with its own charm and character. Can you touch them? Yes! We encourage everyone to interact with our friendly animals while guided by our experts. They will show you how to gently hold and pet these furry, scaly, or feathered friends, so it’s safe and enjoyable. As you interact with each animal, you will also learn fascinating facts about their habits, preferences, and personalities, so your time here is not just fun but an educational adventure!

What Can You Expect from School Fair Animal Experience?

Our visiting expert will contact you before the event to discuss the set-up so we can make sure it suits your space, whether it’s in a theatre, a private room, or outdoors in the glorious sunshine.

During the event, the expert will present a range of animals, including mammals, amphibians, reptiles, and invertebrates. They will tell you about each animal, educate attendees, and help break stereotypes. Furthermore, there will be opportunities for the audience to interact with the animals, including strokes, cuddles, and holds for those who want to participate.

We can run your event with animals in different ways, and it's up to you to decide. We will help you decide what will work best for your event.

Timed sessions: Having a 30-minute block of time where we can sit a group down and conduct a lesson on the animals and hand them around. This way, you will have control over the number of people per session. Whether they book a ticket first or it is first-come, first-served is up to you. Having multiple of these timed slots so that no one misses out and everyone can experience the fun.

Open session: An open session is most commonly used in events. It lets people come and go as they please and decide which animal they would like to see or handle. We do ask that we have a system in place to help control the number of people coming at once so that the animals and the experts don’t get overwhelmed.

Science- Experience what it is like to become a Mad Scientist! Witness as we show you thrilling and educational science experiments. Teaching and demonstrating all about the science behind chemical reactions. Depending on the size of your event, you can have a hands-on experience and create your very own chemical reaction.

What would we recommend for science at your event?

Unlike animals, science sessions have to run differently depending on the size of the event. Many of our interactive science topics usually cater to around 30 people. With events larger than, we have a topic called Science Show Spectacular, in this, we have a variety of different experiments that our Nutty Professor can perform for an audience, making it just as exciting to watch.

Please be aware that where we set up will be very important to run our session. Science makes sure that we can receive power to run some of our science experiments. With our animals, we also have power to be able to plug in a heat system for the animals to keep them warm. Make sure we are away from any loud noises such as speakers, bouncy castles, and throwing activities. If the event takes place outdoors, we will also need to be in a shaded area for the animals.

What we recommend for your event:

Animals:

Science:

While we suggest these topics for your event, we are also open to offering additional options. We can tailor our approach to match your preferences and ensure you receive the desired experience. Please note that certain topics may be more challenging to facilitate based on the number of attendees.

If there is a specific topic you wish to explore that is not listed on our website, do not hesitate to inform us, and we will create a customised session for you. Contact our office with your requests or any modifications you would like to make concerning a particular topic, and we will gladly assist you with
your needs.

Testimonials

Warm thanks from our amazing clients.

Joanna Jeffries

Edinburgh

An unforgettable experience. Your kids will love it! We had Susie in Edinburgh, she was exceptionally good - with the animals and the kids, and the grown-ups too! We all had an amazing time. I highly recommend booking Susie for Wild Science if you're in Scotland. So many memories made!

Chloe Robson

Sandylands

Suzie held an event in Sandylands holiday park today and we had a ball! every animal is well cared for and beautiful. very versed on each animals needs and nature, took the time to explain certain facts and even sat down at the end of her time to talk more on her other animals! cannot recommend suzie enough!!

Ajay Syal

We booked a corporate animal therapy session as part of Mental Health Awareness week, and it was truly loved by everyone. The animal expert Harriet was absolutely fantastic - super knowledgable, engaging and clearly passionate about every animal she introduced us to. The visit included a snake, rabbit, gerbil, snail and more - all of which were super theraputic! It was amazing to see how quickly the team relaxed and connected with the animals. Harriet created such a calm environment that even our more hesitant colleagues were soon happily holding the snake.

We can't recommend Wild Science highly enough - if you're looking to boost morale, reduce stress or just do something a little bit different for your team.

Susie was at Parkdean in Saltcoats and it was a fantastic experience. Very knowledgeable and chatted and answered questions from children and adults. Loved it.

Made my child's summer holding a royal python!

Shannagh Aitken

Attended a group with my husband & kids. Youngest being 1 & it was incredible. Different kinds of animals, was able to hold what we could & pet the rest.
Thanks again for the incredible experience! Fidget was amazing & we are now thinking if adding ferrets to the family. I hope fidget enjoys his chicken 🐔

The lady was going to name a cockroach 🪳 after my son Leon 🤣 poor kid was peed and pooped on, it was sooo funny! Everyone had such a great time. Thanks for entertaining us. 😆

Animal visit (Summer Fair Gilmerton Community Centre)
The management committee would like to thank Susie and trainee Amy for bringing the animals to the Community Centres Summer Fair. Once again, they were very popular with adults and children. Those attending said they enjoyed meeting and learning about the animals up close.

Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre

We were delighted to have both Shannon & Amy attend our free family event at Crystal Peaks shopping centre this Friday. Their communication on the run-up to our event was great. On the day, the head office called us to check everything was ready & the hosts arrived in plenty of time. We had a lot of very excited guests that got to enjoy a range of fascinating creatures throughout the day. The team were great with the public & very knowledgeable about their little critters. We can't recommend Wild Science enough. Thank you for making our day so good.

Des Best

The animal expert we were lucky enough to have from wild science was excellent. She even managed to keep the kids at a 7 year old birthday party relatively quiet and very interested. Would highly recommend.

Toni

It was a wonderful day had by all, the adults and children really had a great time every animal was explained in great detail and we will be booking them for further events

Dani Jaff Klein

My son (4) and his friends had the most wonderful time! The scientist was totally able to engage their attention for over an hour and they had fun and learned so much too! Thanks for the best party!

Leah Lorentson

We have used Wild Science for 3 years at our school. Each year they deliver wonderful sessions to Nursery and Reception children. We have never had any issues and would recommend them to everyone. The children love the experience and the animals and staff are amazing!

Jason Ewart

Thank you Wild Science for such an amazing party! Amy was super professional and had the kids eating out of the palm of her hand. My son absolutely loved the animals she brought and we were so impressed with how she handled the group (of 3-5 year olds) and gave them interesting and fun facts about each animal which kept all the kids interested and engaged. It was so much fun, we would highly recommend it!!!

Jasmine Pierce

Ross was absolutely amazing. So patient, kind and knowledgeable of the animals and the slime workshop. We had a party of 20 and with the madness that ensued he was always calm and reassuring for each child if they were apprehensive of holding any animal - big or small. Would 100% book Wild Science again, especially Ross.
Thank you for making our animal lovers birthday so special!

Lucia Williams

Ross came to my sons 3rd birthday, he was brilliant, the kids had a great time, the whole thing was really relaxed and everyone got a good amount of time with the animals and really enjoyed the experience - the customer service beforehand was really good, great communication and lots of questions answered - highly recommend!
