Butterfly Life Cycle at Forest School

11 Jun

This week at Forest School, our students became nature detectives as they took part in scientific observations of the butterfly life cycle. With great curiosity and care, they closely observed the early stages — including eggs and tiny caterpillars — in their natural habitat.

It was a fantastic opportunity to experience the wonders of metamorphosis up close, sparking awe and curiosity about the natural world. We’ll be returning soon to continue our observations as the caterpillars grow and transform. Stay tuned for the next stage in their journey!
