Visit to the Zoo!

The weather forecast for tomorrow looks fine, so it’s off to the zoo we go!!

Please remember to bring a healthy snack for morning break and a packed lunch including a boxed drinks or bottles of water.

We ask that you do not bring drinks in cans or glass bottles for safety reasons, and no fizzy drinks.

We need to wear our school uniform and bring a light jacket to keep out the chilly weather.

You are allowed to bring a camera to take photographs at the zoo, if you wish, but if possible just a camera and not a mobile telephone with a camera. It is your own responibility to look after the camera.

We are all looking forward to having some fun at the zoo and learning about lots of different animals.
