Zoofari :)

On Wednesday all senior classes went on a trip to Auckland Zoo. We were met by educators from the zoo who showed us around the exotic animals trail. 

We learned so much! We had an awesome day. 

Keep watching the blog for more pictures and learning from our trip to the zoo. 

Big thank you to the Warehouse and Richies bus company that sponsored us. Also thanks to all the helpers that came to support us!
