Covid-19 update:
Whilst we are closed during this lock down period, we will still be responding to future school group booking enquiries.
Staglands Wildlife Reserve provides a wonderful educational environment for school groups, offering fantastic learning opportunities that reflect the new NZ Curriculum and 5 Key Competencies. These experiences cannot be replicated in the classroom. Bookings are essential and it is highly recommended that you book as early as possible to ensure that your preferred date is available. Click here to contact us.
Your group can use The Barn as a central point and you are welcome to bring your own lunch or book our special BBQ pack.
There is plenty of space to park cars and buses and our Staglands Café is open every day, so parents and teachers can enjoy a well-earned coffee.
