Singapore, 11 May 2010 - Looking to do something different yet educational this June school holidays? Catch a rare glimpse of the magnificent birds of prey up close, take a march with the penguins and spend the night with flamboyant flamingos. A great way for families to bond and for kids to have fun while learning more about birds, the Bird Quest Camp and the Sleep with the Flamingos Family Camp at the Jurong Bird Park promise to be an enriching experience.
The two day Bird Quest Camp from 3-4 June 2010 is a full day camp just for children between the ages of 6-11, without a sleep over. The interactive nature of the camp will allow participants to embark on an expedition for some up close avian encounters while socialising and having a spot of fun with the other camp participants. Be awed and fascinated at the newly-opened Bird Discovery Centre, unearthing the secrets of nest making and learning all about eggs, feathers and flight. There is also the opportunity for a rapturous encounter with the majestic birds of prey, discovering how their adaptations make them the kings of the skies. What could be more fun than learning about all things avian in the good company of other like-minded children?
The Jurong Bird Park is the only park in the Asia Pacific to have a dedicated avian hospital. A component of the Bird Quest Camp is the opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes peek at the avian hospital where birds are cared for and nursed back to health.
The two day Sleep with the Flamingos Family Camp from 12-13 June 2010 is open to parents and children looking for a terrific bonding session over a sleepover. Take a march with the penguins and meet Pinky, a Humboldt penguin who’s truly a star in her own right. While there, spend some time at the viewing gallery looking at the speed and agility of the penguins as they glide effortlessly through the water.
Get set for a thrilling time at the World of Darkness Tour.Stalk the owls and find out why they are known as silent killers. At the Breeding and Research Centre, little chicks will clamour for attention when participants meet the new hatchlings and understand how the Bird Park takes care of these feathered bundles of joy. When night falls and sleep beckons, participants will turn in right next to the flamingos, and wake to their graceful gait the next morning.
This June at the Bird Park is nothing less than exciting for the family. Be sure to enroll your children or the whole family for a fun and educational time at the Bird Quest Camp and the Sleep with the Flamingos Family Campin the company of feathered friends this summer break!
