Mini Beasts

Explore some of Avon Tyrrell’s many different habitats in the search of invertebrate life.  Groups will be able to experience mini-beasts up close and learn to use simple keys to help them identify their finds. 

Key stage one: the session will focus on variation and the different mini-beasts found within a habitat.

Key stage two: the session will focus on habitats and adaptations, using invertebrates as a study group.

If you would like to investigate variation, mini-beasts or habitats in more detail, how about trying one of our topic days?
