Stick Insects

Something special happened this term. We received some Stick 

Insects for our classroom. These are Crowned Stick Insects and there 

are 21 altogether living inside the glass tank.  Their tank is filled with 

the food that they eat which is mostly Eucalyptus leaves as well as 

some old skin and droppings. 

Last week, the students all helped in putting the stick insects onto 

new leaves and some of the students freaked out when they saw the 

insects crawling! The pre-service teachers also liked the stick insects. 

I like the stick insects in the classroom because it has brightened up 

the area. 

So come and check them out!
