We are very sad to be leaving the zoo.  We have had a fantastic day but it is now time to get the bus home.

Remember we want to hear everyone singing along to our going home song.

Play the song below and sing.

 

We hope you have really enjoyed your virtual zoo trip.

Miss Duncan and Miss Brown have really enjoyed it!!

Here are some extra videos of other favourite animals that we have found and you could watch to keep the zoo trip going.

Wow,  did you see the girl lions?  How do we know they are girls?

We are now going to make our way to see the Koalas.  Where do Koalas come from?  Which country?

Watch this webcam of the Koalas at Edinburgh zoo!!!

Now, it is live so they might not be very active or in the video when we are watching at this time.  You can watch this at another time to see if they are active if they are not.  Here is another live link if they are sleeping when you watch.
