Year 2 Visit Colchester Zoo

May 14, 2019
Year 2 had a fantastic trip to Colchester Zoo. To support their understanding and appreciation of animals and their habitats, our budding Attenboroughs observed animals ranging from lions and tigers to butterflies and bugs. They were also lucky to be given the opportunity to feed a giraffe and an elephant. The children thoroughly enjoyed their day at the zoo and were able to consolidate their understanding of animals and their habitats in a fun and practical way.
