ZooSchool
ZooSchool is a unique partnership between Mandai Wildlife Group (MWG) and NTUC First Campus (NFC), combining NFC’s deep expertise in early childhood education and outdoor learning with Mandai Wildlife Group’s decades-long leadership in wildlife education.
At ZooSchool, nature is the classroom. Designed for children aged 3 to 12, ZooSchool offers hands-on programmes that extend the classrooms inside Singapore’s wildlife parks at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve. Through each programme, children explore animal behaviours and conservation, while nurturing essential life skills such as teamwork, curiosity, resilience, and confidence. Young explorers have access to five world-class wildlife parks, with opportunities for animal encounters and behind-the-scenes experiences where they will learn the importance of protecting wildlife from veterinarians and animal care experts.
The 1,5200-square metre purpose-built facility at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve complements the outdoor experience for an immersive learning adventure. ZooSchool features indoor spaces inspired by natural ecosystems and a multi-level outdoor playground designed to ignite imagination and support physical development.
At ZooSchool, children learn, explore, and grow from understanding and appreciating the wonders of the animal kingdom.
