Free Live Lesson - 28th February 2024
Join the WWF Education Team for a World Wildlife Day Live Lesson! We'll be looking at some of the amazing wildlife we have on our planet and discovering how some of our favourite species are being impacted by climate change, deforestation and plastic pollution.
Audience: Aimed at Key Stage 2 / Second level aged pupils (includes home education)
We'll have loads of fascinating wildlife facts, an exciting World Wildlife Day Quiz for your pupils to take part in, plus we'll discover how schools can play a part in helping our nature to thrive.
In the UK and around the world, nature is in crisis. We're destroying our forests, polluting our rivers and oceans, and causing devastating changes to the climate. Global wildlife population sizes have plummeted by an average of 69% since 1970.
There is hope. With your support, and thousands of others across the UK, we are taking a stand for our natural world.
On 3rd March this year, World Wildlife Day, global brands, sports teams and charities will join together in removing nature from our logos for the day to raise awareness of the nature crisis. Find out more here.
We're now in a race to bring our world back to life. Together, we can turn things around.
