Your school could win a complimentary tour of Emerald Park!
Primary schools throughout Tipperary and across the country are being encouraged to get creative as Emerald Park launches its first-ever Primary School Tour Competition with one lucky school set to win a complimentary 2026 school tour experience!
In an exciting nationwide call-out, schools are invited to craft a fun and imaginative limerick featuring the words 'Emerald Park' for the chance to secure a full day of adventure, wildlife encounters and high-energy fun!
The winning school will enjoy a complimentary school tour to the theme park and zoo located only 20 minutes outside of Dublin in Ashbourne, Co Meath, during select dates in May or June 2026, with full access to the park’s incredible range of attractions. Entries must be submitted by Friday, March 27, and only one entry per school is permitted.
This marks the very first competition of its kind from Emerald Park and presents an exciting opportunity for schools across Tipperary to secure a memorable end-of-year celebration for their pupils.
When it comes to school tours, Emerald Park delivers a day that ticks every box. From exploring the park’s fully accredited zoo home to more than 250 animals to discovering immersive habitats like Lemur Woods to majestic leopards, pupils can connect with wildlife in a hands-on, engaging way. Budding conservationists can learn about biodiversity and animal behaviour, all outside the classroom walls.
Then it’s time to turn up the excitement with over 45 rides and attractions, there’s something for every age group, from adventures in the Junior Zone to adrenaline-fuelled thrills for older students brave enough to take them on including the Cú Chulainn Coaster, the immersive land of Tír na nÓg and much more!
Emerald Park blends education and excitement seamlessly, offering downloadable activity sheets, free entry for teachers and SNAs, and complimentary coach parking making it a smooth, stress-free experience for schools from start to finish.
Schools across Tipperary are encouraged to gather their most creative pupils and submit their entry before March 27 for the chance to win the ultimate school tour completely free!
Emerald Park will fully open on Saturday, March 21, where guests will be able to enjoy over 45 thrill-seeking rides and attractions.
