🕵️‍♂️🔍 Bug Detectives on the Loose! 🐞🐛🦋

20th May 2025

As part of their exciting topic "It's a Bug's Life", our curious Primary 3, 4, and 5 pupils turned into mini beast detectives this week! Armed with magnifying glasses and a keen sense of adventure, they explored the school grounds in search of tiny creatures hiding in the grass, under logs, and among the leaves.

The children were thrilled to discover a fascinating variety of mini beasts, including wriggly worms, speedy centipedes, busy ants, fluttering butterflies, and even a few shy ladybirds! They carefully observed each creature’s features and habitats, sparking lots of questions and wonder about the world of bugs.

It was a fantastic hands-on learning experience that brought science to life and encouraged teamwork, curiosity, and respect for nature. Well done, young explorers!
