We are thrilled to announce the launch of HERD’s very first kids’ club—Trunk Troopers! Designed for children up to 13 years old, this free club is the perfect way to inspire young minds, spark their creativity and teach them all about elephants and conservation.
By signing up, little elephant enthusiasts will receive a special bundle of fun-filled activities to explore, including puzzles, games, and educational content about these incredible animals. Members will also enjoy exclusive Trunk Troopers videos and other surprises tailored to foster a deeper understanding of elephants and their unique stories every month.
At HERD, we believe in starting conservation education early. As South Africa’s first dedicated elephant orphanage, we care for baby elephants who have lost their families, helping them heal and grow within the Jabulani Herd. Through the Trunk Troopers Club, we hope to nurture a love for elephants and nature in the next generation while encouraging families to spend quality time together exploring and learning about these amazing beings.
We’d love to see your little one’s artwork and creations inspired by the club activities—don’t forget to share them with us! You can email all creations to fosterings@herd.org.za.
