About Newquay Zoo

 

Our aim at Newquay Zoo is to get you closer. Whether that is closer to artefacts and minibeasts in our workshop sessions, or closer to our wonderful animals in the zoo itself, you’re guaranteed an amazing trip that brings learning to life.

With our incredible animals, plants, and grounds, we’re the perfect place to expand minds and inspire creative thinking. Our unique environment allows you to explore and contextualize topics in a way that will engage and enthuse your pupils regardless of age, ability or subject.
