The Great Escape!

When we were mending our Willow Dome last week, we found and collected nine caterpillars and put them into an old Butterfly Net house. We left school on Friday and thought they were safe in their enclosure or so we thought.  When we came in to school today (Monday) we stood in amazement at an empty enclosure – they were all over the classroom! The first three were easy to find then we found one more and then another until only one caterpillar was missing.  

We searched everywhere but could not find it.  It was not until work had started that a yellow and black thing was seen crawling around. We had found all the missing caterpillars! They shouldn’t escape again …hopefully.

PS Two are already in cocoons.
