Prep

Melbourne Zoo Excursion

On Friday 9 August the Preps went on their first school excursion to visit the Melbourne Zoo. We were all very excited to have a ride on the school bus, see many different wild animals and become Wildlife Explorers during our talk with a Zookeeper. They shared some of their favourite moments below:

“The butterfly landed on my head!”  Kenzie S 

 

“The meerkats were so cute when they were standing tall”  Lillian B 

 

“Seeing the tigers and lions and giraffes”  Eida B 

 

“The sea animals and watching the seal doing tricks”  Ruby S 

 

“Seeing the tiger and hearing the noises!”  Enoch S 

 

“EVERYTHING!”  Derek M
