This week Year 1 had a wonderful time learning about habitats on their school trip to Hyde Park.

They spent time pond dipping where they caught all kinds of creatures including pond snails, tadpoles, freshwater shrimp and a lot of algae. They also went mini-beast hunting, looking for creepy crawlies under logs using their special bug catcher equipment! While participating in a quiz around the Lookout Centre’s garden they learnt all about the life cycle of a frog and about the different amphibians that live in ponds. They particularly enjoyed playing in the beautiful autumn leaves.

Great fun was had by all!
