Year 7 pupils at Shapwick Prep School recently enjoyed a very successful outing to Tropiquaria near Minehead as part of their Life Science studies.

All of the pupils got up close and personal with a variety of vertebrate and invertebrate animals.

The highlight of the day was holding the snakes, both a coil python and Boa Constrictor. There was also a new arrival in the form of a very obese skunk – Mr Bumble weighed in at an impressive 12kg!

Overall the pupils and staff enjoyed a very informative trip which the school hopes to repeat next year.
