What a tremendous job the After School Club did turning our IBC water unit into a five-star bug hotel! The children gathered up natural materials from the woods and working together they created a wonderful new home for all sorts of minibeasts.
We also had a bug hunt with John Orr, Highland Highlife Outdoor Ranger, who helped us explore and discover what was living around the site. The highlight of the afternoon was when one of the children found a four spotted chaser dragonfly – a very exciting find and a great reminder of why it’s so important to create and look after habitats for wildlife.
A huge well done to all the children for their hard work, enthusiasm and teamwork. What a great afternoon outdoors!
