    Shaldon Zoo Encounter

    15 May 2026 (by admin)

    The Explorers were excited to have some visitors from Shaldon Zoo today!

    We were so impressed with the children's listening skills during the Zoo visit. Lots of them were happy to hold a cockroach, giant snail and stick insect and were fantastic at guessing what all the artefacts from the zoo were.

    We learnt lots of interesting facts.... which creatures have an 'exoskeleton'? What noise do cockroaches make? What do snails use their antenna for?

    A huge thank you to FOBS for fundraising to make the visit possible.
