Primary Times Buckinghamshire &Milton Keynes NEWS WhizzFizzFest 2019 is back… and this year it’s better than ever! On Saturday 22 June, Aylesbury’s fantastic family-friendly literary and arts festival, with children’s literature and imagination firmly at its heart, returns to the town centre for all to enjoy! Kicking off at 10.30am with the much loved parade, WhizzFizzFest offers an excellent programme of free and ticketed activities! This year welcomes awesome authors, Cressida Cowell (How to Train Your Dragon), Judith Kerr, (The Tiger Who Came to Tea and Mog), and Nick Butterworth, (Percy the Park Keeper) to the main marquee. Hosted in the beautiful gardens of Bucks County Museum, will be a taste-bud-tickling Teddy Bear’s picnic offering traditional food for the kiddies and street food for the grown-ups. The Runway Stage comes to life once again with music, dance and theatre throughout the day, as well as playing host to the fantastic fancy dress competition (which has some really awesome prizes by the way!) And, new for 2019, WhizzFizzFest will be rounded off with asuper-fun Silent Disco! Pick from retro party hits, chart toppers or club classics on your own personal headphones and dance the end of the day away with family and friends! For tickets and information visit www.whizzfizzfest.org.uk Wildlife Zone The aim of the Wildlife Zone at green Dragon Eco Farm is to support the protection and conservation of species that are at risk in the wild by being actively involved in breeding programmes so that animals can be returned to their natural habitats. Also, the Zone is home to rescued wildlife in need of care, sanctuary, and possibly rehabilitation. Expert staff teach visitors about the animals and their conservation -from red squirrels to birds of prey –during training sessions and demonstrations. For those visitors who are keen to get more involved, Green Dragon offer Ranger for aDay which is a three-hour experience in the company of one of their wildlife experts where visitors learn how to handle and care for the animals. Green Dragon welcomed two female European Polecats and an additional Silver Fox that will be joined this year by pine marten and lynx. The final enclosure, which will be for the lynx, will be finished by the summer making the Wildlife Zone Project with its huge naturalistic structures complete. Training is continuing with the young birds of prey and the pair of barn owls are now flying in tandem. Also, the new silver fox is responding quickly to its feeding training and there are exciting Private Experiences available for visitors involving feeding and training the foxes. And, if all goes to plan, the reindeer females will be giving birth from the end of May onwards to the first ever reindeer babies born at Green Dragon! www.greendragonecofarm.co.uk Get your free tickets for this year’s Armed Forces Day event Saturday 29 June, 12:00 noon - 6:00pm.
