On Wednesday we had a visit from Kimmy’s zoo. All the children really enjoyed meeting the different animals, from a tiny praying mantis to a cute fluffy chinchilla! The children learnt lots of facts about the animals including where their natural habitats are and how different animals and insects survive e.g in the rainforest or the Savannah. A day of fantastic memories for all.

On Thursday, Reception and Key Stage One had a very special visit from an actual zookeeper whose main role was to care for the elephants.  The children asked lots of fantastic questions and learnt some amazing facts. Did you know that elephants know when a storm is brewing as they can feel the vibrations through their feet!
