About us

Area Covered
We currently cover the Lancashire and Merseyside area for in school workshops and fieldwork, including Preston, Chorley, Blackpool, Blackburn, Burnley, Liverpool and Lancaster. Please also get in touch if you are outside of this area, and we may be able to arrange a package which takes into account journey time to your school.
*COMING SOON* We are looking to offer offsite fieldwork trips for primary school, GCSE and A level groups moving forwards. Please check our website and social media for updates.
Shannon Raponi
I am the founder of NatureLab, working with schools to impart my passion for the natural world and its protection.
I am a qualified primary school teacher with experience in KS1 and KS2. I have also worked as a field studies instructor and group leader, teaching biology and geography fieldwork to school groups in every year group from KS2 to A level, in addition to a number of volunteer roles with children.
I have a degree in animal behaviour and training, and wildlife conservation and research experience in South Africa. Throughout my career so far I have worked to give children experiences they would not otherwise have, and inspire a love for nature and the outdoors.
