Click to play this Smilebox slideshow: The Tropical Zoo


In The Early Years we have been learning about mini beasts, so we went to visit The Tropical Zoo at Syon Park to see if we could learn more. We travelled by coach to Syon Park. On arriving at the zoo we went into a room where we could look at and hold 2 stick insects, a cockroach, a millipede, a tarantula and two lizards. They were amazing. The millipede had LOTS of legs! The spider was enormously huge.The ladies who showed them to us were very kind and answered lots of our questions.
We had lunch on the grass outside the zoo. After lunch we had time to run around before we went back inside to look at the fish, turtles, snakes and other fascinating animals in the zoo. Some of the fish we saw were huge. Most of the animals we saw come from countries with a tropical climate so it was very hot inside.

When we had finished, the coach was waiting to take us back to school. We were all very tired (some of us fell asleep on the coach!) because it had been a very exciting and special day for everyone.  
Enjoy the wonderful beasties!
