Caterpillars

17 pupils in the class took home the caterpillars today. It is part of the Science activity to get them to observe the life cycle of butterfly. They will bring back the caterpillars on next Monday and their partners will take over to take care of the caterpillars. Looking forward to see these caterpillars turn into butterflies.

I tried to take care of a pair of caterpillars last year. This picture shows the old skin (the top of the stick) of the caterpillar. As we have learnt in class, caterpillars moult when they grow. Anyway, my caterpillars never turn into butterflies. Sad.
