Year 2 at Whipsnade Zoo - July
Here are some extracts from the recounts that the children wrote about the trip.
Yesterday we went to an exciting zoo called Whipsnade. It was great. First we went on a big white coach. My partner and me sat on the top. It was very scarey and very exciting. My partner was called Krish. He's a very nice boy.
Then we got off the coach and we were waiting in the line and finally we were in the zool
Oliver
When I got off the coach I went to see the chimpanzees. On the way I saw the lemurs. Then we headed to the giraffes. It was quite a long walk. On the way I saw some lazy bisons.
Daisy
First we saw lemurs. Lemurs are good climbers because their tails are so long so they can be the best climbers.
Omer
When we got there we were so excited to see the lemurs. Oh, yes, and we also saw lazy chimpanzees. After that we saw very tall giraffes and the giraffes had the stinkiest enclosure out of all the animals in the whole, entire zoo.
Dede
I also saw a tiger. It was hiding so we tried to look for it but we couldn't find it. When we went on, Mrs Mankodi's group found the tiger. We all gor really excited and saw the tiger.
After that, we had some fruit for a snack because we were waiting for our turn at the workshop. But then another school thought it was their turn and took our workshop so we decided we would have lunch there.
Jessica
We went to the tigers. I saw a picture on the wall. Mrs Trott told me not to bang on it in case the tigers were in there so I ran.
Hollie
The sealions were my second favourite. Oh yes! The California Sea lion because it looked funny. I wanted to see it swim but we were looking inside and it was probably outside. We had a look outside but it was probably having lunch.
Sophie
After we went to the butterfly house and one of the big, blue butterflies landed on me.
Zofia
We looked at the elephants and one of them was getting lots of hugs.
Nevaeh
We went to see the elephants and thre was a baby elephant. After we saw the rhinos and they were covered in mud. And then we went back to the school.
Frankie
Then I went to the butterfly house. One of the butterflies came on my head. I saw lots of butterflies in there. Loads.
It was a really fun day.
