It’s been a long time since our last post but we have been working with Kenny from Shettleston Growers to build a bug hotel.

It has taken ages! – Christopher

We have put a lot of work into it. – Thomas

We collected pinecones to put in the mini-beast hotel. – Kylie

We took some wood and painted insects on it. – Justin

We painted our recycled windmill. -Lucy

Some of us worked with Kenny and the rest of use put lots of natural materials inside the hotel.

I enjoyed myself. I helped sort the branches by their size.  – Ace

We drilled some holes into logs to make homes for ladybirds and solitary bees. -Cian

We used some of the braches that fell down from the tree inside our bug hotel. – Kenneth

We put slate in our hotel to make layers. – Chloe

We had fun and we sometimes worked together. -Luci

Lots of bugs can use our mini-beast hotel. We will be looking for ants, millipedes, bees, spiders, slugs, snails, lady birds, caterpillars, butterflies, and hedgehogs.

On Thursday we went hillwalking.  We walked on part of the John Muir Way and climbed up a hill.  Thomas said, ‘Some of us were knackered when we got to the top.’
