On Thursday 11th May, the year one pupils went on an amazing adventure to Tropical Wings Zoo.
First of all we were met by some of the zoo keepers who introduced us to some interesting insects. Some children were even brave enough to hold them!
We were then free to explore the park. This included the Butterfly Kingdom where the children felt as though they were in a tropical climate surrounded by beautiful butterflies and birds.
"The butterflies are pretty and floating!" Jessica exclaimed.
"The butterflies thought I was a beautiful flower," giggled Millie-Rae.
"Oh wow!! There is a butterfly on my head!" Squealed Lenny excitedly.
Here are some of the animals we were lucky enough to spot.
The teachers then had a peaceful journey home...zzzzzzzzzzzzzz
The children in Year One were a credit to Mead School. Other visitors at the park even complimented the children on their fantastic behaviour and polite manners.
Well done Year One and a huge thank you to Tropical Wings Zoo for having us!
