Melbourne Zoo Excursion
On Wednesday the 8th of May the 3-6 students took part in education programs at the Melbourne Zoo.
Here is what the students had to say about it.
“My favourite animal was the spider monkey because they are cute, funny and love to climb. They were black and white with long tails. Their habitat has ropes, trees and branches.” - Sabine Willmot. Grade 3.
“We went to learn about the Local Legends.. My favourite local legend was the helmeted honeyeater. The helmeted honeyeaters story goes like this, it is known for feverishly protecting its nest but people are cutting down trees and destroying its home! We can help them by using toilet paper made from recycled paper.” -Linus Hupfeld. Grade 4.
“I liked the Melbourne Zoo because there are cool animals like tigers, tasmanian devil and australian fur seal. The tassie devil is the best. I learned that the tassie devil has sharp teeth to eat meat.” - Miki Nowak. Grade 3.
“My most favourite thing was seeing the seals. I saw that they were so excited to see us all and they were absolutely adorable.” - Alexa
“On Wednesday 3/4s and 5/6s went to the Melbourne Zoo. My favourite bit was seeing Diamond the corn snake. We got to touch him! - Alexandra
“There were monkeys, giraffes, penguins, snakes and meerkats at the zoo!” - Chiara
“My favourite part was seeing the monkeys and the seals.” - Elise
