Pagey - Day 9
Wed 26th October - 6.46pm by Karen Page
Jambo
Today was very exciting, we took Kindergarten 1,2,3 and Standard 1,2,3,4 to Haller Park to feed the Giraffes and look at the other animals. The students behaved very well and were incredibly excitiable and seemed to thoroughly enjoy the day, especially the Giraffe feeding and tormenting the Mongoose and Monkeys. Lunch was a special treat for them, having a bottle of soda and bread and jam, although the monkeys also seemed to enjoy this snack too.
It was so lovely that we could arrange to take circa 150 students from Victory to Haller Park with our bag packing at Morrisons a few weeks ago. It was amazing to be able to take them on a 'school' trip and to see them enjoying themselves out of the school environment.
Highlights would have to be 'face painting' animals onto all of their arms - many wanted snakes, butterflies and spiders and watching their reactions to this. Another would be the 'cheekiness' of the monkeys and the fact that Alex got weed on last year, but unfortunately received a similiar, but worse present from them this year. He is not their greatest fan at the moment, but I found them cute!
Hope all is well back home, love to everyone
