Rainbows Go Wild! at the Zoo - London Zoo

Over 1600 Rainbows went wild at London Zoo over the weekend and enjoyed a special programme of activities put on by London Zoo along with all the regular attractions London Zoo has to offer.

Girls took part in special hands-on activities including:

• animal encounters - of all shapes and sizes!
• hippo teeth-cleaning,
• mini keeper activities,
• butterfly crafts and counting,
• rainforest I-spy, and
• feeding the hungry giraffes.

In addition to this, all the Rainbows were set the challenge of finding a real life Olivia within the zoo. This created a special atmosphere of guiding excitement! One Leader told us that as they were coming passed this morning on the coach and the Rainbows were shouting out "there’s Olivia, there’s Olivia" and she had told them that no it wasn’t, it was just someone in a red tracksuit. When they got to the entrance and met Olivia the Rainbows to then shouted "look we told you"!

Girlguiding UK would like to thank Zoological Society of London for their immense efforts to make the weekend a memorable event. We would also like to thank the sponsors of this event Ladybird Books and supporters Bananagrams and RSCSP Animal Action magazine!
