Under the British Council’s RIDS Programme, our young learners embarked on an enlightening Realistic Zoo Tour on 22 November at Maitri Garden. The excursion immersed them in the vibrant realm of wildlife as they explored diverse ecosystems and observed captivating animal behaviour. They also gained insights into exemplary animal-care practices across India, Australia, and Kenya. This experiential learning journey fostered empathy, strengthened their understanding of conservation, and instilled a deep sense of stewardship for our planet’s treasured species. The tour proved truly inspirational, encouraging children to cherish the splendour and ecological importance of wildlife.
