BBC Wildlife visits Longleat Safari Park

Good afternoon everyone. I'm a BBC wildlife reporter and I'm here at Longleat to show you around.

For the people that don't Know Longleat, it's a huge safari park in England. But, it isn't just a safari park. At Longleat, there is a big mansion too, where the Marquis of Bath lives. He is Longleat's owner. Yesterday, I met him. He is very nice and obviously he has a big passion for animals.

Well, let's start our visit here at longleat.

Here, there are real African animals, such as lions, gorillas and monkeys. The lions of Longleat are very famous.

All of the animals are divided by areas, like the monkey's area.

Do you know what's the most dangerous animal ? Well,  it is the monkey.

At the monkey's area, the people have to be careful, because the monkeys are crazy. They jump on top of the car and try to put their hands through the windows. Can you see them, they're there !

There is a big lake too, where there are a lot of animals, like crocodiles.

Here, the time goes by quickly.

The turists always look very happy. They love Longleat.

I would like to show you more about this

place, but the time is running out, so I hope you have liked our visit, because it finishes NOW !

A Visit to Longleat Safari Park

Good morning everyone! My name is Helena Branco, and I’m a BBC Wildlife reporter. Today I’m here at Longleat Safari Park, where we can see a lot of wild animals and visit a big mansion where the Marquis of Bath lives. These animals are divided in different areas, but they aren’t inside of cages, they are free. We can see animals such as monkeys, lions, koalas, toucans, zebras … but we can’t walk here, we just can drive inside our car.

Now we are going to see the lion cubs and the famous lions of Longleat. Look, they are playing together, and the lion is walking around his cubs. What is that? Oh monkeys, they are very cute, and crazy. All of these animals are very special, but now we have to go to the Longleat  mansion. Oh, this is amazing, this house is so different. It has got a lot of beautiful and precious pictures.

Our visit here is finishing. This is a big, beautiful and great place to visit, and here anybody can see the wildlife, without danger.

Bye, and preserve the nature so that animals can live!

Hakuna Matata

Written Work no.1

My name is Alexandra Reis.

I spent a week in the Amazon rainforest with a local tribe and I’m going to describe the daily routine of that tribe (indigenous people).

It’s hard for us to get used to their way of life. They wake up very early to hunt. The children help their parents to grow food, weaving and making things at home. In the rainforest there are many plants that can help the sick people, and the tribe catches those plants and help their friends. At night they get together and perform their magical rituals. They are very happy and they don’t want to change their life.

This is the tribe Hakuna Matata and it’s a cool tribe. I loved this experience!

Longleat Safari Park

            Hi! Last year, in my holidays I was in Longleat Safari Park. Now, I am doing a report about Safari Park for BBC wildlife.

            Longleat has a lot of wildlife animals such as female lions and male lions, jaguars, gorillas, monkeys, alligators, tigers, zebras, giraffes, turtles, many animal cubs and so on.

            I visited Longleat by car. I drove along the Safari Park, but I couldn’t stop because the monkeys put their arms in the windows and swing the car. You can visit Longleat by train, boat and bus.

            In the Safari Park there are rivers, trees, florests, flowers and so on.

            It’s also a mansion you can and must visit. It’s a small world and it’s amazing! I loved visiting it!

O Holocausto e o Rapaz do Pijama às Riscas - Uma Visão do 7ºH

 Embora não seja em Inglês, julgo que este trabalho deve ser mostrado, pois é raro ter alunos com o grau de interesse e motivação como estes. Durante o ano letivo 2010/11, o 7ºH fez uma pesquisa no âmbito da Segunda Guerra Mundial. Em Estudo Acompanhado, analisámos o contexto social e histórico e lemos posteriormente a bela história "O Rapaz do Pijama às Riscas", de John Boyne. Os alunos realizaram posteriormente alguns trabalhos, que culminaram numa exposição na Biblioteca da nossa escola. O resultado está à vista.

Boa tarde a todos!

Para começar, agradeço a vossa presença em nome do 7ºH, pois é para nós muito importante que aqui estejam.

Com a leitura do livro “O rapaz do pijama às riscas”, de John Boyne, inserido no Plano Nacional de Leitura, ficámos a conhecer uma triste parte da História da Humanidade que, apesar de desumana e terrível, não pode ser esquecida. Erros idênticos não devem nunca mais ser cometidos pelo homem.

Ficámos ainda a saber o que foi a 2ª Guerra Mundial e tudo o que ela causou. Foram milhões e milhões de mortes, vidas inocentes perdidas, famílias destroçadas, cidades destruídas e muitas lágrimas derramadas.

Tudo devido à ganância extrema de um homem que queria conquistar o mundo. Esse homem era Hitler.

A história do livro “O rapaz do pijama às riscas” ensina-nos também que a verdadeira amizade não conhece barreiras, nem religiões, nem crenças ou credos.

Nesta exposição mostramos o que aprendemos nas aulas de Estudo Acompanhado.

Esta é a nossa visão. A visão do 7ºH.

Muito obrigada!

Saving our planet

This is not a new topic but it's always recent and important to talk about.
So, watch and listen king of pop's "Earth Song" and think about it.
You won't regret.

Thank you Michael Jackson, for your contribution.
