Orana Park Trip

On Monday, the year seven and eight students went to Orana Park. It was really sunny and a nice day to go to the zoo. We had an awesome zoo teacher named Toby. He showed us some cool animals like Gorilla, Cheetahs, Siamang Gibbon and more. We learned some cool stuff about the animals. My favorite animal was the Meerkat.
