This year Ms. O Connell’s class decided to get a butterfly garden school kit which includes:
A reusable butterfly pavilion hatching habitat with super clear mesh for easy viewing and dual zippered entry for access. We also received caterpillars and their food.
All of our caterpillars have been named.
Here is a selection of just some of the names:
Joe Tony Browne,
Aoife Junior,
Shannon Goylie Schniederlitchen Peterson Junior,
Flippin’ Jam Scatter bug,
Prince Junior,
April,
May,Vegetable,
Muiris Junior,
Friday,
74,
Alfie,
Steve,
Genie Mac
And Pete
We have had them for two weeks and they are making great progress.
So far only one of our caterpillars passed away (Nellie the 1st) and has been replaced by Nellie the 2nd..
We are delighted with our caterpillars and can’t wait to see them as butterflies (hopefully!).
