After following the progress of our caterpillars which grew and formed their cocoons, we finally saw our beautiful butterflies emerging in their nets last week. After feeding them on sugary water and slices of oranges, it seemed that they were ready to fly off and on Thursday we found a quiet spot to release them near the nature area at the front of the school. 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.
