Hopes New Stick Insects

We’re excited to share that Hope has some new tiny residents, Indian stick insects! They were kindly donated by one of our school families. They are masters of disguise, blending in perfectly with twigs and leaves. If you’re passing the office, take a look in their enclosure and see if you can spot them!

To keep them healthy, we feed them a diet of bramble and other fresh leaves. The children help to care for them by gently misting their enclosure every few days to keep the humidity just right. They’ve been a wonderful addition to our school and a great way for pupils to learn about living things and their habitats.
