CHILDREN from Hamp Recreation Centre Youth Club had a reptilian experience last week when they were visited by some lizards.

16-year-old Drew Woodcock brought along some of his own pets, including a gecko to show the youngsters in preparation for a trip to Tropiquaria.

Manger of the centre Les Riddle said: "We wanted to get a bit of an insight into how to look after reptiles and find out more about them.

"25 kids were just glued to him for an hour, it was brilliant. It was great to hear from the young people and find out which animals they wanted."
