Supervision & behaviour
After your visit
We want everyone to enjoy their visit to ZSL London Zoo. To ensure good supervision of their groups at all times during their visit, one adult is admitted free for every 10 secondary pupils or every 6 primary pupils. It is a condition of the entry costs for school visits, Teachers and accompanying adults must supervise their groups at all times during their visit.
If any group is unsupervised, teachers will be contacted and asked to re-join their group. Please ensure pupils know who will be supervising them during the trip.
Pupils must understand the standard of behaviour expected of them and why these standards must be followed.
These guidelines are downloadable from zsl.org/zsl-london-zoo/schools/pre-visit-checklist.

Lunch facilitiesThe symbols on this map indicate areas around the Zoo that are suitable for picnicking. These are listed below. Please note there is no storage facility for packed lunches.
Covered areas: • Lunchroom
(for booked groups only)
• Aquarium
• Shelter opposite Snowdon Aviary
• Walkway next to B.U.G.S!
Non-covered areas: On sunny days the many lawns around the Zoo provide the perfect place for eating lunch, and there are also plenty of benches around the site to rest on. Not all areas are large enough to accommodate an entire class. On busy days it is therefore advisable to split into small groups for lunch.
Please use bins provided for disposal of waste.
