As part of our learning about living things, the children used recycled materials to design and build their own insect homes.

Their curiosity and enthusiasm shone through as they explored why these needs are so important in our environment.<\/p>\n

Through play, they explored the different patterns and imprints that flowers and other natural objects can make.<\/p>\n
