Schools on Safari
To add that personal touch to your next visit to Binder Park Zoo, why not sign your class up for a Schools on Safari program?
The cost is only $40.00 per class, per program. Class size is limited to 40 participants (this includes both children and adults). Programs are 30 minutes long which means they won’t take away too much time from your zoo visit.
This is your chance to see some interesting animals that are NOT on exhibit at the zoo. The programs are not only fun, but also educational.
Programs must be scheduled in advance. Programs are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. Call to schedule yours now! (269) 979-1351 ext. 133.
Due to the popularity of our programs, we may not be able to accommodate your group if you arrive late. Please make every effort to call the Zoo at (269) 979-1351 if your group will be arriving late for your program. We will do our best to accommodate late arrivals, but we reserve the right to cancel or adjust program length depending on the availability of staff.
Cancellations of your visit due to weather or road conditions are your decision. Please call as soon as possible to let us know of any cancellations and we will try to reschedule. If it is necessary to cancel at a time when the Zoo is closed, please leave a message on our voicemail, (269) 979-1351, ext. 133.
Schools on Safari Progams:
African Circle of Life/Food Chain – 30 minute program for grades 3-5
All living things depend on each other to survive. Students will learn how plants and animals interact in the great circle of life; who eats who or what and why. Plus, what might happen if the circle is broken.
African Habitats – 30 minute program for grades K-2
Africa is a vast continent with many different habitats and animals. Students will learn about three different African habitats and get a chance to meet animals that call those habitats home. Students will also learn how each animal is adapted to their habitat.
Suitcase for Survival - 30 minute program for grades 7-12
Packing you bags after a nice vacation? Be sure not to include ground rhino horn, a can of turtle meat, or even the smallest amount of ivory. While learning about international wildlife trade, students will see actual products confiscated form people who violated laws intended to protect vanishing species.
