OUR TRIP TO AUCKLAND ZOO.


Room 15, 26 and room 32 are going on a trip to the Auckland Zoo.We got off the bus and went into the zoo.The time was 9:15 it was really cold. Now we are having a snack before we go for a very long walk in the massive zoo. 



All parents are helping today on our zoo trip. There was also a helper to teach us about the animals in the rainforest. We saw lots of animals like tigers,monkeys,birds and  almost all of the animals in the rainforest.
Here are a group of spider monkeys sitting altogether.


Here is Ritik standing next to a mould of an Orangutan's hand, they have very large hands and fingers.

After that we all went off with our parent helpers and we saw nocturnal animals like kiwis,hedgehogs and the bugs that come out at night. It smelt like poo almost everywhere. The zoo is also a special place in the community and it is a public place. 


Here is a snake skin and one of our wonderful parent helpers and Gabrielle and Saufina from room 32.

Here is a skull of a McCaw bird, the picture above is a photo of a McCaw bird.

The animals we saw at the zoo are tigers,monkeys and mostly all of the animals in New Zealand. All of the groups had lunch seperretly in different parts of the zoo. After we had lunch we looked at the birds and we also looked at some other animals. Finally we went to our meeting spot at 1:30 with room 32 and 26. Then we went to the bus at 1:45 and waited until we were there. When we went back to our classes we had a little play on the playground for 10mins. Then we spent the other 10mins doing work.                                                      
                                                              

This is the skull of a tuatara and some interesting facts. Did you also know tuatara eggs sex is determined by the heat of the nest the warmer the temperature the eggs will be girls the colder the eggs will be boy tuataras.
Seals are mammals they live on land and water. They are very grateful when they swim in the water.



We had a wonderful day at Auckland Zoo and we are thankful to all the wonderful parents that came on our trip and help us learnt about adaptation and habitats.
