School
Tours
Our
goal at Leu Gardens is to provide a fun and educational experience for school
children that compliments the curriculum used to teach them about plants and
insects. In order to meet the
increasing demand among schools to include Leu Gardens in their field trip
visits, we will again be offering two types of tours, plus teacher training
sessions. We hope one of
these tours will meet your needs, and that you will include Leu Gardens in
your visit this school year. With
both tours, the teachers call and schedule a time to come to the Gardens.
They will then be sent to confirmation, registration form, and map
and guide including suggestions for pre and post activities.
