Virtual school trips

Curriculum-linked virtual workshops for your class

Enjoy a dose of Eden inspiration for your class wherever you are. Our virtual school trips are delivered online by a member of our Education Team just for your class. We’ll lead the session, delivering live activities, challenges and conversations with your class; supported by pre-recorded videos. We will provide all the resources and materials you need to support your learners in class.

Rainforest Connections

Years 3-4 & 5-6

Find the connection… this session explores the links between us and the rainforest and between the amazing plants and animals in the rainforest. By investigating the connections between plant and product pupils will understand how the rainforest features in our everyday lives, and how we can work together to protect it.

Sussing Sustainability 

Years 5-7

Figure out a ‘best’ packed lunch… for you, other people, planet. This session challenges pupils to choose a ‘best’ packed lunch for trip to Eden. The issues behind their choices are revealed helping them to develop an understanding of simple sustainability principles as a first step towards becoming informed consumers.

Climate Response 

Years 4-7 

Climate change has been described as a ‘wicked problem’ and it’s incredibly challenging for us to know what to do for the best. In this session pupils get the latest on the issues and investigate the different roles and ways of responding. Are you a doer, shopper, learner or shouter?

Enterprise Challenge

Years 6-10

Eden challenges your pupils to create a product or service that meets our sustainability criteria. We can offer an introduction to kickstart your in-school challenge, or run a multi-session programme exploring sustainable enterprise with pupils presenting their brilliant solutions back to us.
