Natural History Museum



What another great experience we had at the Natural History Museum! Our students put on their "scientist glasses" this morning and off they went to explore the two main exhibits of the museum - living things on land, and sea creatures. We were very lucky to have five parent chaperones, Amina, Sudha, Rania, Torill and Lesley, working with our students in small groups. Together, they traveled around the exhibits, looking at the different taxidermy of various land animals like oryx, Arabian tahr, fox, and leopard, as well as studying the sperm whale skeleton and dolphin bones. They also took a real close look at different types of shells, rocks, meteorites and coral. It was a fun day filled with great learning and discovery!
