2pm-4pm | Secret World's Wild Academy: Poo Party
Ages 6-10 £5 per child (parents must accompany children)
Here at Secret World we love animal poo. Poo can be really useful in our wildlife hospital as we can check on an animal’s health by studying their droppings. Poo identification skills are also really useful out in the wild as they may be the only sign of animal activity that you can find when out in your local wild patch. Join us this session to find out about food chains, animal digestion and most importantly of all – whose poo is whose!
