After weeks of watching the progress of our caterpillars which grew and formed their cocoons, we finally saw our beautiful butterflies emerging in their nets at the end of last week. After feeding them on sugary water and slices of oranges, it seemed that they were ready to fly off and on Friday we found a quiet spot close to Nursery to release them. Although they did not seem keen to leave us, Miss Kerr gave them a helping hand to settle on the flowers which gave everyone a chance to have a close look at our little butterflies before we waved them goodbye.
