Year听6听pupils听have been learning about living things and habitats during their science lessons this term.听To help put this听into听context they headed听out听for a听day听at听,听for听a series of interactive workshops.听听

The main session听involved how听giraffes adapted听to their听environment, with听uniquely long legs and necks.听The听zookeeper听kept the pupils engaged and excited with interesting facts, such as听鈥榙id you know the pattern of a giraffe鈥檚 coat is as individual听as a human听fingerprint?鈥櫶�听

Following on from the workshop, pupils headed to the classrooms听for a session looking at bones and skulls.听This听provided听an exciting opportunity for them to handle听bones and skulls of听different听animals.听听

As the day progressed, pupils had the opportunity听to browse the various animal enclosures. The听meerkats and snow leopards were the most popular听but听not quite as听popular as the gift shop!听
