The original teachers have also returned in various forms to bring order, discipline and a good solid education back to the guests of ROARR! Dinosaur Adventure.
When you arrive, you will be allocated to your school house (Dippy/Raz/Paris/Terry) and a timetable for the day and make sure you are not late to lesson, complete all the lessons and earn yourself a reward. Don’t worry, the teachers bark is worse than their bite, well in most cases, and Dippy and Friends will be on hand to look after you!
