Bug hunting

What did the children at Greenfingers Club find?

Children in the Greenfingers Club worked with David from the HOP garden, who is also one of our Governors.

They used their own eyes do lots of searching under leaves, stones and in trees.

Finally they used different magnifiers to take a closer look.

Some children also flicked through the books available to identify their minibeasts.

The most interesting find was a spider which was seen rolling one of her eggs - incredible!
