CLASSROOM IN THE WILD is designed and presented by Serendipity Wildlife Foundation, based in the US and operating in Asia and Africa.
Our first program will start in October 2024 at a school in Everett, Washington, where second graders will receive five classroom sessions on six different wild animals: Leopard, giraffe, zebra, elephant, cheetah, and rhino. The education will consist of an audio-visual presentation and practical work with instructions, which will be conducted by the class teacher.
When possible, volunteers from Serendipity Wildlife Foundation will attend and conduct an additional one day educational hands-on session for the students with animal skulls, fur, claws, and entertainment for the children.
Currently, Classroom in the Wild is targeted towards 7-8 year old second graders, and will remain that way into 2025. By late 2025, we hope to expand it to other age groups.
The program starts in October 2024, and we hope to introduce this educational program to more schools in the US.
In 2025, along with introducing more schools in the US, we hope to expand our program internationally.
This year, our newest program - Classroom in the Wild will be introduced in the US, and our goal is to educate our youth about nature, conservation, and the wild.
HOW CAN WE GET THE PROGRAM TO MY CHILD’S SCHOOL?
Please have someone from your child’s school get in touch
with us at mail@csiwildlife.org requesting a partnership with
us, and we would be happy to deal with the school.
However, please note that we will only partner with approximately 6 schools in the US
until the end of 2024.
HOW MUCH DOES THE PROGRAM COST?
The program is completely free for the school.
DOES THE TEACHING HAVE TO BE DONE IN THE CLASSROOM?
Yes, we will send the teacher the required videos and the hands-on practical work.
IS THERE A “CLASSROOM IN THE WILD” FOR OLDER KIDS?
Not yet. In 2024, and possibly the first half of 2025 as well, our focus will be on kids in second grade.
DO YOU NEED SPONSORS?
Yes, we do. There are several expenses for this program, and any sponsorships and support is welcome. Donations are tax-deductible as permitted by law in the US.
CAN I VOLUNTEER TO HELP OUT?
We do accept qualified applicants to serve on the Education Advisory Committee. We also accept volunteers to help us out at any locations that will have hands-on exhibits. If interested, please send an e-mail to: mail@csiwildlife.org.
