Our trip to Queens Park

On Wednesday the 13th of April we all went on a bus trip into Queens Park, in Invercargill. The trip was part of our science, 'Living World' topic.

We visited the stumpery. It was great fun looking for different 'living things' amongst all the wood.

After we had had some morning tea we went over to the animals. We were looking at how the different animals kept warm and also how the animals kept themselves cool, in the sun.

We loved looking at the wild pigs. They came out to see us.

After visiting the animals we walked over to the bird aviary to see all the interesting birds there. We looked at their different beaks and feet and thought about how the birds use them.

When we had finished looking at the birds, we had a picnic lunch in front of the aviary, before getting back on the bus and heading back to school.

A big 'Thank you very much' to all the parents who came along to help us out on our trip, we hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did.
