It’s a zoo out there

Impact went to the San Francisco zoo on a field trip recently. Everyone had a hilarious time at the monkey exhibit watching the various monkeys climb up poles and howl through the fence. The Impact kids also got to witness a penguin feeding. The kids watched in fascination as the penguins fought over the fish. Sometimes a penguin would fall on its face or fall right into the water which caused the students great delight.

A favorite for the students was the petting zoo. However intimidating the goats were with their horns and hooves, the students enjoyed combing, and feeding them. But the favorite part for the team leads was how well some students behaved. At each exhibit, some students took turns to read the animal descriptions and then shared their new found knowledge with the rest of their team. The students have obviously gotten closer to each other since they first met two months ago at Summerfest. Watching the students grow in trust and fondness was what brought great delight to the team leads.
