Trip to the Dinosaur Park

 This week the children of Lion's class visited the Dinosaur Park in Lenwade. A truly wonderful day was had by all. We began our day searching for dinosaurs in the lost world before heading out onto the dinosaur trail, where the children discovered more prehistoric creatures. We discussed which were carnivores, omnivores or herbivores and how big the would have grown to be. The children also enjoyed the assault course and even set themselves their own challenges to complete.

We went to the theatre to watch a short animated film in the afternoon before going on to look at the animals in the secret garden. The children were able to apply their geographical knowledge and explain which continent each of the different animals originated from. We concluded our afternoon by becoming palaeontologists, uncovering a variety of fossils.
