Attingham Park - Spring 2012

On Tuesday we revisited Attingham Park to see what had changed for the spring. This time we took Eleanor along and we had eight pre-schoolers with us.

Leaves are starting to shoot on the trees

Tyler loves the sunny weather

We saw some cattle out on the fields

Eleanor taught us how to play 'Pooh Sticks' ask her nicely and she will explain it to you so you can have a go

We saw a helicopter flying low over the trees

We saw lots of deer, the stags have horns called antlers

We all sat quietly to watch the deer 

We saw a pair of swans

It was a long way up the hill to see the deer so we sat on a log pile for a rest

Amee collected a lot of pine cones

Dudley Zoo

Dudley Zoo is an old-fashioned zoo, with animals in relatively small cages and runs. It was an interesting day out as there was also a castle in the middle of the zoo.

Here comes the animal man

On Thursday 28th July, Simon the Animal Man showed up at the nursery to wow us all with tons of wierd and wonderful animals. From snakes and scorpions to chinchillas and cockroaches we touched them all.

West Midlands Safari Park Trip

July 26th we took the out of school club to the West Midlands Safari Park in Bewdley. After a mini-bus tour through the safari park, we went into the zoo part of the park and saw seals, snakes, lemurs and meerkats. A busy day, but lots of fun for all.
