The children of Lions Class have enjoyed a fabulous day out at Africa Alive this week! Despite the very changeable weather, which really was a case of four seasons in one day, our spirits were not dampened!
The children took an interest in all of the animals that they saw and we were able to use our knowledge of continents to discuss where in the world they originated from. The children were particularly fascinated by the meerkats and the lemurs.
We also enjoyed a talk on giraffes and discovered lots of interesting facts, including why they have black tongues. You'll have to ask one of our Lions if you want to know the answer to that fun fact!
We ended our day with a train ride around the zoo and got to see our friends from Sutton, who had spent the day there too.
