Year 1 had a fantastic visit this week from The Ark Farm.

The current science topic in Year 1 is all about the classification of animals, so the children had prepared lots of questions to ask about the animals. During the visit they had the opportunity to observe up close and handle: a chinchilla, a hedgehog, a lizard, an owl, tortoise, rabbits and more.

The staff were astounded by the confidence the children showed around these animals.  All the children commented on the feel of the animals, in particular the spines of the hedgehog.
