| As part
of our work we attend a number of conservation and wildlife themed
events around the country each year. At
these events we use display tanks to show the general public live
adult newts, their eggs and young. A licensed newt expert is on
hand throughout the day to oversee the display and answer questions
and give advice. Our attendance is always very well received and
generates a lot of interest and feedback.
We make a special effort to actively
involve children by allowing them to examine newt eggs and larvae
using hand lenses. Depending on circumstances and the type of event
the licensed newt expert may remove adult newts from the display
tanks and allow the children to hold them.
To ensure our attendance at your
event it is important that you contact us well in advance. Our fee
for attending events is negotiable and may be grant/match funded
depending on location, type of event, expected numbers and the time
of year. To find out more and check on our availability email carole@newtsinyourpond.com
If you get the chance come along
and visit our stand at one of the events we are attending in 2008.
