Reconecta Program Rules – Educational visits for schools and universities

General aspects of the Reconecta Program

The Reconecta Program’s educational experiences are offered to groups of students from elementary school (Kindergarten – from 4 years old, Elementary I and II and High School) to higher education.
The educational tours take place at the São Paulo Zoo (Zoo SP) on Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays, and at the São Paulo Botanical Garden (Jardim Botânico SP) on Thursdays and Fridays, except public holidays, in the morning or afternoon.
The Reconecta Program’s educational experiences cater for a minimum of 15 and a maximum of 50 participants per time slot, except for the Papo Animal experience (at Zoo SP), which can cater for a group of up to 250 participants in the same time slot (as long as they are at the same level of education).
For the educational tours of the Animal Adventure (at SP Zoo) and Verde Perto (at SP Botanical Garden) experiences, each educator will guide a group of no more than 25 students.

Tickets

For each group of 10 (ten) elementary school students, 01 (one) teacher/supervisor or chaperone will be exempt. In the case of Higher Education groups, exemption will be granted to 01 (one) teacher/supervisor or chaperone for each group of 20 (twenty) students. The excess number of teachers/supervisors or accompanying persons must pay for the specific ticket for the visit scheduled under the Reconecta Program.
Tickets for the Reconecta Program’s educational tours are limited to Zoo SP and Jardim Botânico SP, and do not include visits to Dinosaur World and Safari SP.

Changes, delays or cancellations

Changes to the number of participants and/or the date of the visit can be made as long as they are notified to the Zoo SP and Jardim Botânico SP service team no later than 5 (five) days before the scheduled date of the visit.
The Reconecta Program’s educational experiences are allowed to start 30 (thirty) minutes late, and under these conditions the visit may be altered. If the institution exceeds this period (30 minutes), the educational visit will be canceled and the group will only be able to make the free visit (without mediation) to the park, without the right to a refund of the Reconecta ticket.

The educational institution’s responsibilities

Teachers/supervisors or chaperones must accompany the group, according to the regulations for the number of students (1 for every 10 elementary school students or 1 for every 20 university students), for the entire duration of the educational visit, and the SP Zoo or SP Botanical Garden educator will not follow their group’s visit without the presence of a teacher in charge.
Responsibility for the conduct of students and accompanying persons on the premises of Zoo SP and Jardim Botânico SP lies exclusively with the educational institution. The institution will be responsible for any damage that students, teachers or other people accompanying the group cause at Zoo SP and Jardim Botânico SP. In the event of damage, the educational institution must reimburse the damage caused.
The educational institution must be aware of all the rules and conditions of the Program and must send in digital format, by e-mail, the Visit Scheduling Form signed by the institution’s representative, within 05 (five) days prior to the visit, as a criterion for making the scheduling effective.
