Suffolk Wildlife Trust has long recognised that people hold the key to the protection of the county's wildlife for the future. Our network of education centres and Wildlife Watch Clubs are working to ensure that young people are equipped to make informed decisions about the way they live their lives and the impact of their actions and lifestyle choices on the county's wildlife.

Education activities

Our approach offers children and young people an opportunity to learn by experiencing Suffolk's wildlife and wild places first hand. It challenges them to think and make informed decisions about their own role in shaping their environment. By helping them gain the knowledge and skills to understand and care for the natural world we hope to sow a seed that will grow with them throughout their lives.

All activities at our centres work towards your National Curriculum requirements and are planned in consultation with the class teacher. Students of all ages are abilities are catered for in a safe and friendly environment. Indoor facilities, with wheelchair access are available at all centres.

We offer additional support to teachers through training days and in-school projects, as well as assistance in setting up and running School Wildlife Watch clubs.
