School Visits
WHAT DO WE OFFER?
We can either bring a team of Falcons, Hawks and Owls to your school.
An informative talk will be given by an experienced falconer about Birds of Prey in their natural environment, flight, conservation, hunting techniques, and their role in history. Their relevance to the Key Stages 1 and 2 Programmes of Study can be incorporated as appropriate.
All the birds are used to flying to children and members of the public, in classrooms or school halls if the weather is bad, or outside providing suitable facilities are available.
AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION
It is always our goal where possible to involve the children. Children benefit from hands on experience which provides a lasting impression. For some this will be a rare opportunity to be in close contact with these truly magnificent birds, by having a bird fly to them, holding them, or having them as models in art classes.
Teaching packs can be provided before visits and activity packs are available afterwards if required.
All falconers are Police checked and we carry public liability insurance and a performing animal licence.
