#### Nursery class arrived in school on Tuesday 6th June to find their classroom had been invaded by African animals!The children found out the names and some facts about our African animals. Our Nursery class really enjoyed taking part in a sound quiz, where they had to guess which animal had made the sound! There were lots of surprises!

#### We started to find out some key facts about the African continent and then listened to some African music. The African animals took part in some dancing! Check out our Twitter page for a video of this! The children enjoyed creating their own African music and later made some binoculars to use on their very own African safari! Nursery were so excited to spot some of the animals they had been learning about.
