Woodthorpe Church of England Primary School

Learning & Growing Together To Be The Best We Can Be

Animal Safari

In the Animal Safari project, the children will learn about incredible animals that live worldwide. They will explore various animal habitats and compare the animals that live there with animals in their locality. They will learn how to care for pets and what all animals need to grow, survive and stay happy and healthy. They will explore animal features and find out how they survive in the wild. They will compare the ways that animals are similar and different.

 Our second trip of the year will be to The Yorkshire Wildlife Park. This is a Whole school trip, where we will see lots of the animals we will be learning about throughout this topic.
