Reception Careers Week – Zoo Keeper Visit

On Monday, Reception had a very exciting visitor as part of our Careers Week. Jacob, a Zoo Keeper from The Exotic Zoo in Telford, came to talk to us about his amazing job.

Jacob told us all about what he does each day, including cleaning the animal enclosures and feeding all the different animals. We loved hearing fun facts about some of the zoo’s residents, like Smudge the capybara, who enjoys eating fruit, vegetables and leaves, and Captain the parrot, who was full of personality.

The children were fascinated and asked lots of brilliant questions. Jacob inspired us by showing how caring for animals can be a fun and important job.Thank you, Jacob, for visiting us and teaching us so much.

Black Country Living Museum

Y5 went on a trip to the Black Country Living Museum to enchance our understanding of the topic we are learning about – ‘Changes over time’. We enjoyed finding out about the different ways of life and the types of houses and shops that people in Victorian times would have be accustomed too. We even had a lesson at school where Mrs Penfold, Mrs Davies and our parent helpers got told off for their nail varnish!!!!

Y1 Visit Attingham Park

In Year 1 we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Attingham Park as part of our science unit on plants. We completed a plant hunt and looked for wild and garden plants. We found roses, foxgloves and cow parsley. We also identified different trees by looking at their leaves. We loved the visit so much we will be writing a recount all about it for everyone to read.

It has been great to see so many children sign up for this and take to the roads with specialist instructors.
