Another day with no school for the kids? Let the Saskatoon Zoo Society help you out. You provide the lunch and snacks and we’ll provide the wild adventures at the zoo.
Along with crafts and games, you’ll get to meet our animal ambassadors. It’s the perfect day for the young animal lover.
We do our best to accurately list the Saskatoon school districts that are off on the particular PD DAY listed below. However, it is always recommended that you check your school’s calendar before you register. Children from other school divisions are welcome to register for these programs (please check your school’s calendar to see if they correspond with the Saskatoon dates).
