That was an entertaining summerschool on the #zooofthefuture at @noordje.nl We had so much fun! We protested in name of the animals - NO MORE TURTLE SOUP! and HELP I AM SO HOT (by the polar bear)
An animal newspaper was written with articles on a vegetarian tiger and a polar bear that went home.. (and beat everybody up on his way) A book was written on extinct animal species among which the Caribbean Flibbertgibbet (de Caribische Flierefluiter) and the Spotted sand shovel. We concluded with with an exhibition and lots of lemonade! Thanks so noch to all the kids participating! You were with too many to name you all!
And of course for everybody helping in and out!
