Reception and Year 2 Trip to Blackpool Zoo

Reception and Year 2 will visit Blackpool Zoo. The children will leave school at 9.15 and will arrive back in time for the end of the school day. A packed lunch will be provided. Children will be asked to wear their school polo shirts and jumpers/cardigans with any bottoms. The visit links in with Reception topics from Spring 1- under the sea, their current topic- amazing animals and their next topic which is all about Explorers. It also links with year 2’s science learning so it will be wonderful to allow them to experience a visit based on the learning they have acquired. We can’t wait to take the children and create some wonderful memories together!
