Pupils enjoyed a visit from ‘Snakes Alive’ who presented an educational and hands-on experience of some infamous reptiles! We were greeted by Annie the tortoise, Deano the Iguana and Krystof the Red Saharan Uromastyx to name but a few.
All the pupils were thoroughly engaged and asked lots of questions. It was a challenging experience for some of us, especially holding the snakes, but we persevered and overcame our fears.
The pupils also appreciated learning about the reptiles; who knew that tortoises had a strong and painful bite on them and that Bearded Dragons ‘dropped’ their tails when they are attacked by predators.
Meanwhile, in the dining hall, dinosaurs including a Raptor were on the loose! Our Primary pupils were super rangers, capturing them. We were all rewarded with ice cream and dinosaur biscuits!
