Animals! Y1 experience
SOCK IT TO ‘EM Wednesday 19th June was Animal Day in Year 1! The children were visited by Ben from Dinosaur, Wildlife & Education Centre (DWAEC) aka The Animal Man. He bought with him some wonderful animal friends. The children met Georgina the python who was so long that she needed 9 children to hold her! Jim and Joe the baby meerkats were very cute - they enjoyed sitting on Mrs Kaur’s, Mrs Philips’ and Mrs Peters’ shoulders looking for bugs in their ears! Lady Gaga the tarantula was very friendly and many children were brave enough to hold her. The children also met Iggy and Aki the lizards whose belly was too big for him run fast! As it was animal day, the children made sock animals (a ‘Sockerpillar’, ‘Socktopus’ or ‘Sock bunny’) and bird feeders to take home. All in all, it was fabulous day and the beaming faces and sock animal cuddles proved it was a successful animal day.
Thanks to Mrs Kaur for the story.
