Insects

Welcome back to term 3!

This term we are learning about insects and we've got an exciting trip planned to the bug lab at Auckland Zoo.

This week we learned what is an insect and what is not an insect. We also talked about why some insects are important to us. 

Then we went on a bug hunt around the school!
