Catherine Corcoran —

We had an amazing trip to Styx Mill Conservation Reserve on Monday 30 May

My favourite part was getting nets and getting to look at water insects. - Erica

I now know water insects do not like paint, bubbles and rubbish in their habitat. - Greer

I learned that if we wash our cars on the driveway then the dirty water will go into the streams and rivers and the insects will not like it. - Nathan

I learned that bread is bad for ducks because it can fill up their stomachs too much. - James

My favourite part was when I caught a backswimmer insect. - Mehdi

I learned that water boatman swim with four legs but they have six legs. - Izzak

I learnt that rubbish and paint and bubbles are not good for insects because they can kill them. - Taylah
