Home Educator Days

Hertfordshire Zoo are excited to announce that Home Educator Days will be returning in 2026! We will be hosting three designated Home Educator Days, offering children educated at home the chance to explore Hertfordshire Zoo at a discounted education rate.

Attendees will receive an activity card themed around the day’s focus, which they can complete as they explore the Zoo. Children will also have the opportunity to attend a drop-in session between 11am – 2pm, featuring self-guided exploration of biofacts, hands-on activities, and 3D-printed skulls related to the day’s theme. A Zoo Educator will be available throughout the session to answer questions and provide additional insight into the day’s topic.

Our Home Educator Days will be held on the following three dates:

Friday 30^th January 2026 – Rainforests
Friday 27^th February 2026 – Big Cats
Monday 13^th April 2026 – Careers in Conservation
