Jægersborg Deer Park


Grade 1 had a wonderful trip to Jægersborg Deer Park on a brisk autumn day on October 8th. Along our route through the huge ancient oak trees, children were busy trying to spot Red Deer, Fallow Deer and Sika Deer, and ended up seeing a mixture of these at close hand. During this time of year, visitors have a special opportunity to experience the Red Deer’s bellowing call when competing with other deer during the rut, and Grade 1 weren't let down. Children found it quite entertaining when their teacher starting to imitate the call and was greeted with return calls from a nearby Red Stag. It was a unique and enjoyable day  with lots to observe and experience. A big thank you to the mums who accompanied us!
