Trip to the Wolf Park

What a wonderful trip we had to the Wolf Park (Lobo Park).

In the run up to Science Week Key Stage 3 all went to the Wolf Park for their KS3 Science Trip 2008. The day was educational and everyone enjoyed the day out. We learned about wolves, and issues surrounding endangered species, breeding programmes, animal behaviour and animal care. We saw some amazing behaviour from the wolves as an alpha female exerted her dominance over a lower ranking male and also how a pack all showed off to their alpha male. The petting farm was great too and I suspect Pinkie the Pig was a big favourite. On the Year 7 trip, even after a long day, puplsw ere still asking questions at the end and were fascinated by the foxes...we left at the very last second and I had to run for the bus!!!

Well done KS3 for your excellent behaviour and attitude.

I think we should have a small collection and adopt a wolf at Lobo Park. This would help this valuable centre to keep running and we can also have our very own KS3 wolf. Keep an eye out for the collection tin!

Thank you to all the staff at Lobo Park and thanks to Mr Hogan for organising a fantastic day out.
