Minibeast Incursion On Tuesday the girls had a creepy crawly visit! Errol and Julie from ‘Minibeasts in the Classroom’ visited the girls. The girls were able to see and handle some interesting minibeasts! Errol and Julie brought a working bee hive, which was fascinating, as well as scorpions, spiders and stick insects. The girls thoroughly enjoyed themselves and learnt a lot of interesting facts about minibeasts.
