Fens Falconry's Education Centre

Our educational packages follow the national curriculum and provide a whole day of immersive learning for all key stages, abilities and backgrounds. We are adaptive as needed to accommodate SEN pupils and have designed bespoke packages with clients as needed.

 

Our school visits offer a unique opportunity for students of all ages to witness first-hand the beauty and majesty of these incredible creatures, whilst learning about ecology, evolution and adaptation. Our experienced and DBS checked professionals conduct talks that are tailored to each year group, ensuring that your students leave feeling inspired and engaged.

Key Stage 1

We will encourage pupils to question, engage and identify aspects of their environment. 

​

We will provide examples of carnivores, omnivores and herbivores using food chains, discuss the different parts of birds in the interest of identifying and labelling body parts and touch on the reason for their adaptations.

 

Seasons will be discussed with focus on life cycles and hunting.

Key Stage 2

We broaden our teaching from KS1 to include recording data using various scientific studies available on site. We explore subjects like pollination and plant importance for food chains and nutrition and more. 

​

We develop understanding of life cycles of birds and how and why they are classified into groups. We have an abundance of adapted creatures to discuss importance of evolution.

Key Stage 3

KS3 typically focus upon relationships within ecosystems inc. insects, pollination, toxins,  biodiversity and evolutional properties. 

​

There is opportunity to plan, conduct and analyse scientific experiments on site recording and presenting data to improve scientific and inquisitive attitude. 

​

We will promote ways in which pupils can support the environment in small ways to take learning home.

Sixth Form, Colleges & Universities

Delivering lectures to colleges and universities on birds of prey offers an exciting opportunity to engage students with the science and majesty of these incredible predators. The sessions typically combine in-depth theoretical knowledge—covering biology, behaviour, conservation, and ecology—with practical demonstrations, such as handling techniques, flight displays, and field identification skills. Incorporating live birds and hands-on activities not only deepens understanding but also sparks enthusiasm and respect for wildlife conservation among students.

Home Schools

Our fun and interactive bird of prey sessions are perfect for home-schooled children. They'll get to learn all about owls, hawks, and other amazing raptors—how they live, hunt, and why they’re so important to nature. Best of all, everyone gets a chance to handle and even fly a real bird of prey! It’s a hands-on, exciting way to learn, with plenty of time for questions and up-close encounters they won’t forget. We offer both at home visits and visits to our centre!
