The SNC offers a wide range of educational programs about South Florida's ecosystems and inhabitants. These programs are availble to school groups, classes, boy and girl scout troops, church groups, retirement communities, etc.
During spring, summer, and winter breaks, and on the days off of school, we offer a camp program for children ages 6-12. The camp is geared towards environmental science activities. Camp Wild is held mainly in the outdoor classroom at the SNC and all activities and programs are on-site. Pre-registration is REQUIRED. Please visit our website for a registration packet and a printable copy of the Camp Wild days!
For children ages 3-5, we have a Nature Explorers program. Nature Explorers is every Wednesday from 10-11 am. It's never too early to get hands on in environmental education!
Want to have a WILD party? Come to the SNC to make it happen! Use our facilities to give your child a hands-on experience with some of Florida's wildlife for a party that will be remembered for years to come. Book a party for a birthday, graduation, or any other special occasion.
