Huntingdonshire Environmental Education Service
The Wildlife Trust delivers engaging, child-centred learning experiences for primary to A Level school groups. We focus on delivering memorable visits, enabling pupils to develop an understanding of and strong connection to the natural world.
Our carefully-designed programmes are interactive and created to meet needs of children from all learning styles. We seek to provide children with a positive and memorable outdoor experience that immerses them in a day of adventure. The programmes meet the needs of the national curriculum and are practical with cross-curricular links. They are based upon an interpretative approach with learning, emotional and behavioural objectives.

We also provide wildlife activity sessions for community groups. Please get in touch for further information.
