Now is the perfect time for a visit! The zoo is buzzing with activity and there is so much to see and do with some fantastic new exhibits! Our zoo is in a beautiful woodland setting, it is the perfect place to get the family, especially children, connected to nature! As an outdoor attraction remember to check the weather forecast and come prepared – wrap up warm and bring boots and waterproof gear. Our young Brazilian tapir calf born 14th October 2017 is quite a character and is developing a very strong yet comedic personality. He takes joy in everything he does whether exploring his paddock, playing chase with mum and dad or quite simply, eating. Watching, or more particularly hearing, him munching on his favourite food, carrots, is something that shouldn’t be missed! Primarily a breeding centre for endangered species, Linton Zoo is home to some very exciting animals which include magnificent tigers, lions, snow leopard, tapirs, kangaroo, binturong, Mountain zebra, lemurs, giant tortoises, lots of birds and some unusual reptiles. There is a very exciting schedule of events over the school holidays and at weekends which our team have developed to get you much closer to some of our animals, whilst giving you more information about our conservation projects. Meet our Brazilian tapirs Thiago, Tiana and their new addition when the family are given their lunch at 12 o’clock. And there is an opportunity to get very close to the red kangaroo and wallaby mob when the keepers give them their afternoon snack. Don’t miss the animal encounters where you will have a chance to touch some of our smaller zoo animals, every day there will be something different and may include snakes, lizards, owls, baby giant tortoises, guinea pigs, giant stick insects and other creepy crawlies! To get the best from your visit make sure you allow time to go around a couple of times and so that you don’t miss anything plan your outing before you come by checking our website for all the scheduled talks and activities.

Each explores the origins of well known fairytale characters as they discover their superpowers. These branching plot novels are laid out in numbered sections. These are a great introduction to game books.

Along the way you will fight monsters, solve puzzles and discover hidden treasures. The game system is simple enough for a beginner to pick up and start playing immediately while sophisticated enough to provide long-term challenge. It uses dice which introduce an element of luck and ensures that no two adventures are quite the same.

Cambridge search for a star with launch of talent contest for local youngsters Move over Simon Cowell and Britain’s Got Talent, the only talent contest worth entering is Razz’s Got Talent, and what’s more there will be no Mr Nasty, just a fantastic prize including a scholarship to attend Razzamataz Cambridge. Supporting local talent and giving back to the community to help young people with their performing arts training is high on the agenda for the theatre school, which is backed by Dragons’ Den Duncan Bannatyne. The opportunity to see what undiscovered talent Cambridge has is also incredibly exciting and giving existing students the chance to hone their skills and shine individually in front of industry judges is a fantastic motivator too. “Razz’s Got Talent is a really fun way for children to enter a talent contest in a safe and caring environment,” says Emma, Principal of Razzamataz Cambridge. “We only give really constructive and positive feedback because we know it takes a lot of courage and determination to enter a talent competition and we want this experience to be a really positive one that they can learn from.” The judges are looking for raw talent and a special something that sets them apart from the competition. Razzamataz teaches all three disciplines, dance, drama and singing, to create ‘triple threat performers’ so children taking part can showcase one or all of these skills.
