Year One visit to the Butterfly Farm - 18/6/10

Published: 18 June, 2010

The Year One children spent a lovely sunny day visiting the Buckfast Butterfly Farm and Otter Sanctuary. 

As part of their science topic work, they have been learning about all kinds of minibeasts and were delighted to be able to see for themselves each stage of the lifecycle of butterflies and moths.  The children then went outside to be entertained by the lively otters at feeding time. 

After a busy morning they enjoyed a picnic lunch beside the Dart Valley railway, followed by a well earned ice-cream.
