Default Took the reps into school.......pics

So, the story is, my son Seth is 6 and is doing a project on diversity of life.
They had a school trip to the zoo and I spoke to one of the teac=hers about taking in a few things for the kids to look at.
I had already suggested this to one teacher who had dismissed it out of hand saying oh no i dont like snakes.....eerrr sorry but its for the kids....not you......I approached a different teacher and she was very keen.
So after writing lots of e-mails to the school for 'elf and safety and having the headmaster on the phone asking me to be careful as several teachers had phobias I finally took a few things in this afternoon.
One teacher had to go home cos she didnt want to be in the same building as a snake....I ask yo, not a great example to set but anyway.....just a few pics.....
The kids has a great time but werent allowed to touch the animals even though they all wanted to and there wasnt a scared child amongst the 64 that came along in 2 sessions.(no thanks to the teacher..lol)

Impressive Shame they couldnt get more hands on to be honest, i mean some are a deffinate no no (the chillie rose), but others are fairly safe, like the snakes/iggy etc.

Well done you!
