Learning Team Volunteer

Inspiring young people is so important in our mission to protect wetlands. We believe the best way to inspire a future generation of nature advocates is to introduce children first hand to the super-powers of wetlands. Our Learning team helps with bringing awe and information in equal parts to thousands of school children every year!

With around 12,000 formal learners visiting the centre each academic year, we work together to ensurethat every school group has a positive experience as they explore the site. Key to this is offering anorganised and friendly welcome and supporting the arrival and navigation of school groups, andenhancing the self-guided experience for school groups when they are not in a guided learning session. 

Your role will be to assist the Learning Team with preparatory tasks in advance of school visits, greetingand briefing school groups upon arrival, engaging learners during the self-guided portion of their visit,assisting with guided learning sessions, and to tidy up resources after schools have left.

Volunteers are an essential part of the WWT team. You'll get a warm welcome, including information on training, equipment and anything else you need.
