What is like to live on the savannah in Kenya?

This was a fantastic geography topic to start the year with. We started by loacting Kenya and the UK on online maps and atlases and then moved onto learning about the seven continents and oceans of the world. During this topic we compared Kenyan landscapes and animals with those that we are more familiar with here in the UK.
