Caterpillar Update in Junior Infants
Junior Infants have been very busy learning all about minibeasts.
We had a very special delivery from the postman. It was a brown box that said 'Urgent: Open Immediately!'. In the box we found.... caterpillars!
The caterpillars were very small when we first got them. They had to eat the special food in their jar. They ate lots of food every day until they were big and fat!
Every morning we would look at our caterpillars and see how big they were growing. We wrote sentences about our observations in our writing copy.
We noticed that the caterpillars were crawling to the top of the jar. They were hanging down. One morning we came in to our classroom and saw that one had made a cocoon!
Over the next few days all of the five caterpillars made cocoons. They are now hiding in their cocoons until they are ready to change into beautiful butterflies!

Infants Fun Club
Infants Fun Club has started back again for the third term. We have a big group this term and will be keeping them very busy. We will be making the most of the summer with lots of outdoor activities every week.
We have two groups, the Ladybirds and the Butterflies. Each group will have a chance to play parachute games, go Bug Hunting, play a variety of fun running games, and work on mini-beast activity stations. We hope it will be a great term for all of the children taking part.
Here are some of the photos from our clubs.
