Trip to Dartmoor Zoo

Year 1 had a fantastic day out at Dartmoor Zoo.  We were able to see many animals that link with our topic on Africa, such as lion, cheetah, meerkats, goats, ostriches and monkeys.  It was wonderful to see in real life the animals we had been researching in class.

The children were fascinated by the many animals they could see, smell and hear.  Lots of questions were asked and answered.  We all felt that our learning improved greatly.  Take a look at all the photos of our day out on Flickr.  Can you recognise all the animals, and say whether they come from Africa or not?
