We are hosting two charity workshops, with all money raised donated to the David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation.
🌅 Workshop 1 (First Hour)
Silhouettes and Sunsets
Recommended age: 5+
Children will create a beautiful African sunset using tissue paper. They will then design their own animal silhouettes using our prepared templates and add them to their sunset scene.
🐘 Workshop 2 (Second Hour)
Are Elephants Afraid of Mice?
Recommended age: 5+
The elephants have been trampling the farmer’s crops again!
Learn more about these incredible animals and help solve a real conservation challenge. Children will design and build their own model gadgets and creative schemes to protect crops and keep elephants away. Remember — elephants can be very sneaky!

About the Charity
The world’s most iconic species are facing extinction. It has never been more important to safeguard a green future — for ourselves and the wildlife we share the planet with. Global biodiversity is being lost at an unprecedented rate.
The David Shepherd Wildlife Foundation works to protect eight iconic species from extinction, safeguard pristine wildernesses, and preserve entire ecosystems.
They support field partners on the ground, engage communities affected by human-wildlife conflict and the illegal wildlife trade, and campaign for international legal change to protect wildlife. They have been a strong voice for conservation — from grassroots to global stage — since 1984.
