It has been a wild week at Embley Prep as we welcomed a new resident to the Science Lab and our Environmental Club put their knowledge to the test in an animal rescue!
The children were excited to welcome Loki the corn snake to our Prep Science Lab. Loki is a species native to the USA commonly found in overgrown fields, forests or disused buildings. The children were fascinated to learn more about corn snakes, their natural habitats and how important enrichment is to their wellbeing. Pupils had the opportunity to handle Loki and were captivated by his behaviour and the smooth, silky texture of his scales. They also discovered how corn snakes like to hide as he investigated a pencil case! Loki is settling in and pupils will continue to have the chance to visit and observe him.
