    FAO Year 1 Zoo Trip

    7 March 2025 (by Ellie Gath (Ellie Gath))

    Year 1 were lucky to have a lovely sunny day we for our trip to the zoo. The children were full of excitement throughout the day and learnt a lot about the animals.

    We started our adventure with a visit to the dinosaurs, which roared and moved, some even flying high above us, making it feel as though we had stepped back in time. The children were amazed and are now quite certain that dinosaurs are still around!

    Next, we had a talk from a zookeeper who taught us all about big cats. We learned how to tell them apart and where they live in the wild.

    After a busy morning, we recharged with lunch before enjoying some time on the adventure playground. Then, it was time to explore more amazing animals – including big cats such as snow leopards, tigers and jaguars, snakes, spiders, meerkats, lemurs, monkeys, and penguins. 

    Overall it was a great successful day and I will be posting all the photos soon on Google Classroom.

    Thank you for your support in making this trip possible.
