The Bug Hotel

Over the last term Y4 have been learning all about Planet Earth and our local environment. As part of our learning we decided to do something to improve the school grounds and we decided to build a 'Bug Hotel'. These can take many different forms but are designed to encourage native insects and mini-beasts to populate certain areas.

We have built ours outside the Y3/4 classrooms, in the quad next to the KS2 top playground. Although it's not 100% finished yet we hope that our first inhabitants will move in regardless. This will give future Y4 children a great chance to study the local insect population.

We do ask that you help us look after it, by not allowing others to climb on it or remove things from the different levels. It's taken us a long time to plan and make and we're really proud of what we have achieved - please help us keep it safe.
