Our social story is a narrative to illustrate a school visit. The story shows the different situations from arrival at the Zoo to the animal and sensory experiences a student may encounter during the visit. We hope this helps some children understand and be prepared for their day trip to Blackpool Zoo.

We also have a sensory map available to download here, highlighting noises and smells within the enclosures and any possible busy areas.
