Science Week visit to the zoo

17 March 2019

Class 1 enjoyed a trip to Paignton Zoo as part of Science Week in school. The children were able to investigate lots of different types of feet and think about how the animals move. A real shame the tigers and lions were not allowed out to play because of the high winds, but the children were able to see lots of other amazing animals. They had a really interesting talk in the Education Centre all about how animals skin helps them to hide in their environment. They learnt about prey and predators and who likes to gobble up which animals! They showed us some real animal skins which we were able to feel and there were lots of interesting skulls and bones to look at. What a interesting day!
