Our Visit to West Midlands Safari Park

On Thursday 18^th June we visited West Midlands Safari Park. We saw lots and lots of animals. One giraffe came over to our bus and ate some food from the bus driver’s hand!

We visited ‘The Land of the Dinosaurs’ which was new this year. The dinosaurs were huge and made terrifying noises.

 

Some of us went into the bat cave which was very hot and smelly!

Then we went on lots of different rides. Some of these were Twister, Pirate Ship, Ghost Train, Bumper Cars, Elephants and the Swings.

However, we liked the water rides best. Two of these were the Log Flume and the Water Rapids.

We got a little bit wet!!

Our Visit to Techniquest

On Wednesday 20^th of May we visited Techniquest in Cardiff to learn about forces.

We had lots of fun whilst learning at the same time. There were many activities for us to do and for once, we were allowed to touch everything!

There was a water area and a dark room. In the dark room we could experiment with things like plasma balls and controlling different levels of mist. There were lots of different puzzles for us to work out. We played a giant piano with our feet and took photos of our shadows.

Later on we attended a special show about forces where we learned about pushes and pulls, gravity and air resistance.
