Going to plan and enjoy a learning activity out of the classroom?

"Park Experience" is a guided visit programme designed for schools that allows students to gain more knowledge on wetland ecology, as well as the relationship between human and wetlands. In this programme, our wetland interpreters will guide students to visit various thematic zones in the park. With the aid of videos, lectures or games, students will gain more interest in the specific topics.

The duration of each "Park Experience I" activity is 1.5 or  2 hours.
