Year 4 had a fantastic time investigating habitats at Lower Smite Farm! We left the rain behind and enjoyed a brilliant day in the sun doing lots of science investigations.
Pond dipping revealed a wealth of water animals from water boatmen to mayfly nymph, from newts to dragonfly nymph and much more.
A hunt through the woodland and edge of the meadow revealed bush crickets, centipedes, woodlice, frogs and newts, slugs and snails, frog hoppers and a range of beetles. One beetle was of particular scientific interest and as yet unidentified! Year 4 wait excitedly for the experts to report back!
A big thank you to everyone at Worcestershire Wildlife Trust and our parent helpers who helped the day run smoothly.
