The Animal Ark Christmas - We don’t want to go all winter without giving you the chance of seeing your favorite animals and so we are planning a Christmas event this year during late November and early December. There’ll be Santa and his Elf and Fairy helpers in his festive Barn, with lots of Christmas sparkle and presents for the c...hildren. He’ll be joined by a selection of his favourite animals from the nativity who’ll be happy to see you there. The café will be open for hot food and drinks and there’ll be a free cup of hot fruit punch for everyone – just to get you in the Christmas mood! You can find out more about dates and Christmas activities on our web site at http://www.theanimalark.org/santa-is-coming.html and to aid our planning we’d really appreciate it if you could register your interest to let us know you are coming.

The Animal Ark Have you heard about our Preschool Pass? For just £10 a Mum, Dad or Gran can bring their pre-school child (under 5) to the Animal Ark as many times as they like for a whole year! No we haven't gone mad - not yet anyway - the idea is that a parent or carer of a pre-school child can link up with friends after they've d...ropped the bigger kids off at school. Everyone's doing it! Follow the link for application form.

www.theanimalark.org
Look for just £10 a parent and pre-school child can visit any day throughout the year. Call 01603 872274 for information or email to request an application form or download an application form here. Requires Adobe Acrobat Reader.
