The Tropical Forest and The Great Kapok Tree

We've had such a busy week!!

On Monday we went to the Tropical Forest at the Otago Museum.








We saw a pond,








a waterfall,











turtles,








exciting insects,








fish,








a tarantula skin,

and, of course, lots and lots and lots of butterflies!!








On Tuesday we welcomed Tigue into Room 3. It's great to have you here Tigue!

On Wednesday we had a very busy Buzzy Bees session. We helped our Buzzy Bees visitors learn about the butterfly life-cycle that we saw at the Tropical Forest.

On Thursday we didn't have discovery which was sad but we had a special assembly to say goodbye to Mr McLeod in Room 5 (also very sad)

On Friday we began creating our very own Tropical Rainforest wall. Watch out this week as we continue the Room Three Kapok Tree.

Hi Room 3

You are so lucky going to the Rainforest. I loved looking at the photos. I have never heard of the Kapok tree so I will look forward to seeing it on your wall.
Love Mrs O'D
