Birds in Schools



Birds of Prey - School Visits - Silverband Falconry Cumbria UK
Richard's Passion for Birds came from a Primary School Teacher and that passion and enthusiasm comes across when we present the birds in schools. Our "Bird of Prey Awareness and Conservation Package"has been seen in over 400 schools across the North of England and Southern Scotland and we visit many of these schools on an annual or bi-annual basis. The Smallest School we visit has around 15 pupils and we visit every year they get so much out of it. An Art Session With Dumbledore the White Faced Owl			Zeus the Raven. A Bit of a Scoundrel Who Entertained Thousands of Children in Schools.
			Every School will get A Flying Display for the whole School at the end of the day. An interactive Talk Handling Sessions Question and Answer Times. A Realistic View of Animals and Food Chains As options we can provide Art sessions designed to be unique to us. Worksheet packages for all primary year groups. Mediaeval Clothing for curriculum based history. Organised debates on the various topics surrounding the keeping and working of animals.
	All of our talks are aimed to suit the particular year or age group and our Falconers are flexible enough to cover any related topic you require. They have been known to do that at a moments notice, talks can also be on a cross curricular basis,such is their knowledge. Question and Answer times can make teachers quake with fear praying that so and so doesn't decide to ask some obscure question about hair dressing or the latest toy. Our Falconers have heard it all before, and are trained to use that question to steer the conversation back onto the subject. Which one is for lunch We travel to schools with the Birds so contact us to organise a visit to your school. Now there is no need to worry about the extras such as Buses and Little Johnny forgetting his packed lunch.
