Year 1 had a fantastic time visiting Battersea Park Children's Zoo. They loved identifying the different types of diets animals have by their teeth in their ‘Food for Thought’ workshop. They also acted out food chains and thought about how farmers look after their crops.
The children really enjoyed seeing all the different animals, with otters and meerkats being a favourite. They asked a lot of interesting questions and consolidated their impressive knowledge of the different animal categories. We all had fun in the playground using water and sand to create fantastic inventions. It was a brilliant day out and we are so proud of the way everyone behaved. Well done Year 1!
