The young people had a wonderful time on Tuesday at Hemsley conversation centre , funded by the Jack Petchey association .
The young people enjoyed seeing a wide range of animals as well as hearing a talk about the Spider monkeys and how a talk on conservation and the laws around using animal products in fashion.
We are so proud of the young people who were amazing ambassadors for ADO River Valley. 🐒🦍🌳

We were pleased to welcome MP Louie French into school to talk with some of our young people about his role as MP.
They learned about the responsibilities and what a day in the life of an MP looks like.

The young people then had lots of questions for Louie such as how he got into politics and about current political issues. Louie was then provided a tour of the site by the young people and meet some of our animals. 🐎🐷🐐🐢
