Voices of the Rainforest

14th April 2026

Woodpecker class started the summer term with great excitement as they embarked on their new learning journey, Voices of the Rainforest. To launch this topic in a truly memorable way, we welcomed Zoolab into the classroom for a hands-on rainforest experience. They introduced us to a fascinating range of animals that are perfectly adapted to life in the rainforest, including a Giant African snail, a corn snake, a millipede and a beautiful tree frog.

The children were captivated as they learned about each animal’s habitat, behaviour and special features. Everyone was given the opportunity to gently hold one of the animals, helping to build confidence, curiosity and respect for living creatures. It was a fantastic, immersive start to the term and sparked many thoughtful questions and discussions, setting the scene perfectly for our rainforest learning adventure.
