Highlights of the Camp

1. Exclusive Learning Experience with Animal Caretakers
Children will gain rare insights into the lives of animals along with their behaviors through personal interaction. An animal caretaker will be assigned to guide the kids through various learning opportunities about different species, including goats, rabbits, and wallabies. They will have ample chances to ask questions and satisfy their curiosity.

2. Fostering Empathy through Animal Interaction
The zoo is home to a diverse range of animals, and through interactions with them, children can naturally cultivate compassion and an understanding of life’s value. Group activities like walking small animals will encourage cooperation among participants, enriching their social skills.

3. VET Experience and Knowledge Enhancement
In the afternoon, guided by caretakers, participants can feed the animals, engage in hands-on experiences such as a mock veterinary practice, and learn through a fun quiz challenge within the zoo. This encourages not only a connection with the animals but also enhances their understanding of animal ecology.
