Please choose one endangered animal and find answers to these questions. You will then have to present your findings in a PowerPoint.
- What does endangered mean?
- How many of your animal are alive in the wild or in captivity?
- What is your animal’s main habitat?
- What are the main predators of your animal?
- What is the lifespan of your animal?
- Can you find out the reasons why your animal is endangered?
- Can you find out what is being done to preserve it? Which are the main organisations working on this?
Here are a range of websites that Mrs Robinson has found for you. If you click on the link, it will open in a new window.

We tried a new idea in the Michael Parker Library on Open Morning. One of the Student Helpers asked our visitors for their comments about the Library. Here they are:
“A wonderful, bright and relaxing space.”
“Could we have a book of the week?”
“I can’t believe it is so different!”
Good things: “Book requests, space to work, nice lighting, seating, newspapers, subscriptions.”
“Excellent.”
“Good layout, signage and lighting.”
“Ooh, that’s good!”
“Lovely library – great resources.”
“Nice layout.”
“It looks fantastic and has great resources.”
“Relaxing space. Wide range of books.”
“Brilliant books. I love it and can’t wait to use it!”
“Lovely atmosphere.”
“Wow! Amazing and gorgeous!”
“Fantastic space!”
Now, wasn’t that nice?
