Many organisations are realising that children and young people are an untapped resource to advocate for change in habitat loss and biodiversity. Our free sessions are designed to help your students develop the skills and knowledge to become effective advocates for wildlife.
Find further information on what’s included in sessions below.
We also welcome you to purchase one of our adoption packs for your class, so you can receive regular updates about your chosen species and receive your very own class mascot.

“We loved the interaction in the assembly… The link to habitats was perfect because it covers all three year group’s science curriculum.” – Gemma, Ewhurst School
“The children were so inspired, they started to write tiger facts and we had a tiger themed show and tell. Your session was perfect, just the right length of time on the carpet and the mask making was great.” – Maria, Woodlea Primary
“It was lovely having you and the children really enjoyed the session… it was very organised, the right length for the children’s age and lovely activities. I am already thinking about next year!” – Carla, St Francis, Ventnor
“We had fun making the animal habitats… when I grow up, I want to work at an animal charity and help animals.”
“I really enjoyed your talk about the endangered animals and I never knew that there were not many tigers left.”
Last year we delivered to over 9,000 children and young people in the UK with the support of our global conservation partners.
Our aim is to help create conservation advocates for the future, to ensure the long-term survival of the world’s most endangered species. Before this can happen, we believe young people need to learn the knowledge and skills required to be able to do this, including confidence, vocabulary, oracy and literacy.
DSWF offers a tailored programme of conservation and animal art-based talks and workshops for primary schools. These workshops and talks have been shaped around key curriculum components within science, geography, and citizenship.
The purpose of the DSWF education programme is to support children and young people to become effective advocates for wildlife conservation and biodiversity’. Find out how we strive to accomplish this goal.
