Does your child dream about fighting baddies like Superman, battling aliens like Iron Man or swinging in-between skyscrapers like Spider-Man?
If the answer is yes, then this weekend could be your last chance to give them a taste of that real superhero experience! A great value day out, the Superhero Academy is included in the ZSL London Zoo entry price.
Adult tickets are priced at £24.30 while prices for children (aged between 3 and 15) stand at £18.
London Zoo will be holding its final Superhero Academy family adventure on Sunday, 2 September. Kids will have one final chance to dust off their capes and train in animal strength, night vision, agility and speed at ZSL’s special centre for superheroes.
Once inside, junior recruits will learn how to harness the superpowers of the world’s most incredible wildlife in four special training areas.
After collecting their mission pack and mask, kids will step into their first class to learn night vision skills from the nocturnal owl - using special goggles to spot potential food in its woodland home.
Next, kids can unlock the power of super speed, racing against the world’s fastest land animal, the cheetah, before mastering the leafcutter ant’s super strength in time to lift a three tonne taxi safely out of the way.
Finally, they can then climb their way to completion like a gecko and their toughest skill yet – defying gravity to crawl across a bedroom ceiling.
After completing their Superhero Academy training, the young heroes can have their very own graduation photo taken.
Fully trained and equipped, the new superhero recruits will then help ZSL’s very own superhero Captain Z tackle The Maze - a tricky series of obstacles and challenges. They will also face Captain Z’s archnemesis Plastico: a fiendish villain trying to overwhelm the environment with plastic pollution.
Superhero Academy is part of ZSL’s 2018 Superhero Takeover, a year-long celebration of incredible wildlife and the ZSL superheroes working to protect animals around the world.
