A school has been banned from a zoo for two years after a group of children decided to moon at monkeys.<\/p>\n
The 14 and 15-year-olds from Radclyffe School in Chadderton, Greater Manchester, were kicked out of Chester Zoo during a school trip.<\/p>\n
There were around 300 GCSE pupils from year 10, but as a result of the actions of nearly children, they all had to get on the buses and go home.<\/p>\n
The zoo said that 29 pupils were involved, but headmaster of the school\u00a0Hardial Hayer disputed this saying that only 24 children took part.<\/p>\n
Officials at the park said they had no option but to enforce the ban on the entire school taking trips there in future. The ban will last until 2015.<\/p>\n
Some pupils bared their backsides at the monkeys, while others hurled food at them and it is alleged that there was also damage to property.<\/p>\n
A zoo spokesman added: ‘We welcome schools to the zoo on the understanding that the students behave in such a way that does not cause problems for their fellow pupils, other visitors, the animals or staff. Fortunately incidents of this nature are extremely rare.’<\/p>\n
The trip took place on Thursday last week as part of the school\u2019s end of term activities.<\/p>\n
Chester Zoo is one of the most popular zoos in the country with more than 1.4million visitors every year.<\/p>\n
