Zoo Camp at the Birmingham Zoo

Zoo Camp at the Birmingham Zoo provides a dynamic educational experience for children, designed to ignite a passion for nature through interactive STEM-based activities. Campers engage in science, technology, engineering, and math through educational games, hands-on animal encounters, and nature play, deepening their understanding of wildlife and conservation. For teens, the Summer Leadership Experience focuses on developing leadership skills, self-assessment, and career exploration, with opportunities for repeated weekly sessions. Each session of Zoo Camp encourages curiosity and critical thinking as campers collaborate on projects addressing real-world environmental challenges. This enriching program not only educates but also enhances social skills and self-confidence in a lively and supportive zoo setting.
