Kialla Students get up Close to Creepy Crawlies

Years 3 and 4 students at St Anne’s College, Kialla ventured to the Botanic Gardens to get up close with a smattering of native creepy crawlies as part of the RiverConnect Programme; a community partnership initiative that aims to foster the community's love, respect and connection to the river environment. 

"One of the activities that I did was handling bugs, it was very fun! I got to hold a cockroach and a social huntsman. The peson who was leading the activity was John, he was very nice and funny. John showed us a lot of different bugs and insects. And when a spider gets scared it can poop and maybe bite,” wrote Zander.

We got to do lots of fun activities. And learned about the importance of keeping our environment health,” wrote Jemma.

One of the activities we did was to put rubbish into the right bins. We learned that the purple bin (next year) will only hold glass, the red bin holds landfill and waste, the green bin only holds compost and the yellow bin only holds recycling,” wrote Rehet.
