The UK's premier Natural History Entertainers (founded in 2002)

At Travelling Natural History, we have a massive range of animatronic walking dinosaurs, giant movie quality props (dinosaurs, marine animals, artic animals, and jungle animals), a superb collection of all types of fossils. We also have a zoo of live reptiles, including our very own Giant African Tortoise. All of these are accompanied by our Natural History expert presenters, bespoke curriculum, which is directly linked with the National Curriculum, and associated hands-on activities. We have combined these to create an immersive, interactive, and engaging E-learning programme that can be accessed by pupils learning from home in a virtual classroom setting. Our interactive workshops include:

 

Year 1 - Carnivores vs herbivores  

National Curriculum Objective:

Animals, Inc humans - identify and name a variety of common animals that are carnivores, herbivores and omnivores.

Year 2 - Living, dead or never alive 

National Curriculum Objective:

Living things and their habitats - explore and compare the differences between things that are living, dead, and things that have never been alive.

Year 3 - Rocks and fossils 

National Curriculum Objective:

Rocks - describe in simple terms how fossils are formed when things that have lived are trapped within rock.

Year 4- Predators and prey 

National Curriculum Objective:

Animals, Inc humans - construct and interpret a variety of food chains, identifying producers, predators and prey.

Year 5 – End of the dinosaurs 

National Curriculum Objective:

Forces - explain that unsupported objects fall towards the Earth because of the force of gravity acting between the Earth and the falling object (Meteorite strike)

Year 6 – Fossil evidence of evolution
