The children spent their week researching these creatures and writing fact-files about them in order to learn how to take care of them. They held class votes to decide on appropriate names and we are pleased to welcome:
Jeff in Class 7 →
← Spiro Wiggles in Class 8 (Enjoying a late night snack!)
Happy in Class 9 →
Ask your child what they know about these animals, they have learnt some very interesting facts!
For example, did you know that a snail has a radula? This is a type of tongue that contains thousands of tiny teeth, which act like a conveyor belt when the snail eats.
The snails have settled in well and are enjoying life at Ridgeway! We'll look forward to sharing more of their adventures and travels soon.
