Eco news
This month we shall closely study life cycles of frogs and butterflies. We will have caterpillars in class and closely observe the changes daily.
We will continue to observe the mini beasts in our logpile.
We shall also continue to tend to the vegetables, plants and flowers that are growing so well in our garden
area.
We would be grateful if you could bring in sensitive wipes and antibacterial wipes, please.
