Why book Kew Little Pigs for School Trips and Educational Visits?
Kew Little Pigs focuses on animal enrichment for children, giving children stimulating opportunities they may never have at home to spend time with animals they may never usually have hands on experience with. This is a great feature for children with allergies and asthma, as pigs have hair instead of fur, making them hypoallergenic.
Our visits are fun for both children and staff! We have over 6 years’ experience going to schools and care facilities with our micro pigs. Our visits allow children to use their imagination and branch out from everyday school learning.
