Set in a hundred acres of beautiful Somerset countryside, Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm offers everything you need for an educational, fun-packed school trip in all weather.

School offer -
Whether you’re interested in our curriculum linked workshops or prefer to lead your own self-guided visit, we have all the information you need for a fun, educational and memorable day out.
At Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm we believe that learning should be fun and memorable; our Learning Outside the Classroom accredited education programme is guaranteed to bring the learning experience alive for students, whatever their age or ability, from early years to degree level. We have an extensive range of workshops designed to meet National Curriculum objectives and the emphasis is firmly placed on hands-on experience, with opportunities to meet exciting animals! Amazing Animal artefacts such as skulls, skins and feather are also available to help illustrate concepts. Tailor-made sessions can also be created based on your needs and requirements.
If you can’t make it to us, why not bring the curriculum alive in the comfort of your own school, with hands on interactive workshops delivered by our Education Team? Any session, at the zoo or not, can be tailored to fit in with any curriculum, or we can create a session just for you based on your needs and requirements.
To ensure that a trip to Noah’s Ark Zoo Farm is an affordable day out for schools, we offer fantastic discounted rates to educational groups.
