Year 2 Bug Hotels
This week we made Bug Hotels in Year 2 – linking in with our science topic on ‘living things and their habitats’. We had great fun rummaging around the Hall House garden collecting things we could include to make a cosy home for all sorts of creatures. We’re wondering who (or what) will move in!
