Owl Man swoops into Christ Church

The Year One classes had the pleasure to meet the Owl Man and his delightful Owls. On display were a magnificent Barn Owl and a gigantic Eagle Owl. The children learnt that Owls feathers are specially designed to fly silently so any prey would not hear an owl approach. Other fascinating facts included Owls cannot move their eyes but rotate their necks in order to view their surroundings. Many owls are camouflaged to match their surroundings. 

The visit helped prepare the children for their new book 'Owl Babies' which they will use as a reference for writing over the coming weeks.
