# Meet Paul, Our Much-Loved Giant African Land Snail!

Paul is very special to us here at Park Road, as he was born at the school and is now nearly two years old! He loves munching on lettuce and cucumber and can often be found burrowing deep down in his tank.

Our Year 2 children take turns caring for Paul each day, making sure he has fresh food and water. They also help give him the occasional bath to keep his shell nice and clean.

We think Paul is a wonderful member of our Park Road family! ![💚](https://static.xx.fbcdn.net/images/emoji.php/v9/t94/1/16/1f49a.png)
