YR Visit to Lepe Country Park

The children in Year R have had a fabulous day, travelling on a coach to Lepe County Park. While they were there they had a minibeast hunt in the woodland, looked at what they found under microscopes, swept nets through the long grass to find other creatures. They also had a seashore scavenger hunt and safari which included creating some beach art. After lunch the children had the opportunity to explore the sensory garden and had a play on the park. Lots of fun was had!

YR Zoolab Visit

The children in Year R were very lucky to have Anna from Zoolab come to visit. They were introduced to Gary the Giant African Snail, a Giant Cockroach, Buttercup the tarantula, Cheese the millipede and Dolly the snake. Anna taught the children about each of the minibeasts and introduced each of them, including a reptile! She then allowed the children to handle each of the creatures if they wanted or encouraged a wave if they weren't feeling quite brave enough. A big Thank you to Anna for such an exciting and interesting visit.
