Fun activities!

We went on a bug hunt! We went for a walk down to the reserve with Mrs Wheeler, armed with ice cream containers and a special bug container.

We split up into 2 groups, Mrs Wheeler took the boys, and Miss Findlay took the girls. We hunted in bushes, long grass, dug in the dirt and all sorts! We found a few small spiders, a couple of centipedes, and a couple of larger spiders!

We had a great time!

We also watched some sections of a DVD by Ruud Steinpaste (The Bug Man!!!)

We watched sections about Goliath spiders (a type of tarantula), Black Widow spiders, Funnel web spiders and Killer bees!

It was very interesting, and a little scary in some spots!
