Applications are now being accepted for the 2026 Summer Seminar for Teachers!

Zoo and aquarium courses that can be used in the classroom

Tokyo Metropolitan Zoos and Aquariums (Ueno Zoological Gardens, Tama Zoo, Tokyo Sea Life Park, and Inokashira Park Zoo) accept many elementary schools as field trips. Based on this experience, they will hold workshops on topics such as observation methods for living creatures, information (knowledge) about animals, and nature experiences that will be helpful for teachers in conducting lessons.

As in previous years, we are planning both in-person, hands-on workshops utilizing the exhibition facilities and natural surroundings of each park, as well as online workshops using web conferencing systems.

Choose your preferred format, content, and dates from the 12 available courses and register. Participation is free.

Application deadline: Applications must be submitted by June 21, 2026 (Sunday).
