Adventure World (Shirahama-cho, Wakayama Prefecture) will hold the "Animal Rescue Team★Rookie Member Training Program," an overnight experience program for elementary school students, for two days on July 19 (Sat.) and 20 (Sun.), 2025.
This program aims to nurture children's "ability to feel," "ability to think," and "ability to act" through deep contact with animals and nature.
　A variety of experiences will be offered over the two days, including challenging adventure-type missions throughout the Park, spending time with staff observing animals from unusual perspectives, and staying overnight in the Park after business hours.
We will begin accepting participants in late March 2025.


During the two-day overnight experience program, children will work as "rookie members" of the "Animal Rescue Team" in teams to take on adventure-type missions, observe animals with staff, and engage in other special activities that cannot be experienced in the regular park experience. The program also includes special activities that cannot be experienced in the regular Park experience, such as observing animals with staff.
They also stay overnight at the park after business hours and participate in valuable experiences such as night patrols of Safari World and doing radio calisthenics with the pandas before the park opens.

Substantial support for growth
staff members will fully support the children during the program as senior members of the "Animal Rescue Team".
They will explain the essence of work that deals with life and help the children to move forward when they are faced with anxiety or difficulties.
This helps them to develop a heart that values life, and to acquire the joy and confidence to take on challenges.
