We were SO excited when we arrived in school this morning as two butterflies had emerged from their cocoons:
So we carefully opened up the net…..
and dropped some sugary water on the leaves so the butterflies would have some liquid…
…before releasing them outside.
We hope we see more butterflies tomorrow.

We’re looking forward to seeing our butterflies – maybe on Monday! Watch […]

Just a note to explain the situation with the word lists that the children have brought home.
