The Year 1 children had a wonderful day on Monday when they visited the butterfly farm in La Queue-les-Yvelines. This visit both consolidated and inspired their learning about insects and the children amazed everyone with their knowledge and understanding. The enclosure was a place of wonder and discovery as the children found their courage and confidence when interacting with the beautiful butterflies. It also became a game of hide-and-seek as we looked carefully for the very well-camouflaged caterpillars!
The children also had the opportunity to repot their own plant to take home and encourage insects to visit their gardens.
After a picnic lunch, they travelled to Parc Corbière, where they enjoyed playing in the shade.
C'était un plaisir de sortir les enfants pour la journée et la chaleur n'a pas entamé leur plaisir ou leur intérêt.
