Fun and interesting lessons in the Classroom
The Classroom focuses on the African theme. During the lessons, students will learn all about the relationship between humans and animals, the layout of the animal kingdom or biodiversity. To make it an impressive lesson, the rangers show special materials, such as horns, fur and poop.

Biodiversi-what?
Discover what biodiversity is and why it's so important. Which animals do you find in which habitat? Why do we need different types of plants and animals? What happens when there are too many of one species? Or too few?

Elementary Education Upper School:
We will look at different ecosystems during this lesson and discover what happens when an area lacks biodiversity. We also learn what we ourselves can do to increase biodiversity in our own environment.
