Emma's Stick Insects/Leaf Insects: By Emma-Jane

Stick insects can camouflage themselves in the trees. They like to eat eucalyptus leaves. They curl their tails up like scorpions so that when danger comes they can pretend to be scorpions and frighten their danger away.They have got six legs.

I free my stick insects when they hatch out of their eggs. Today I saw one hatching out of it's egg. It didn't look wet like a chicken looks when it hatches. 


Weather today and trees in our Park: by Timothy


Today it is windy. The trees are swaying around. The biggest tree in the park is a Gum tree, it is swaying the most. The Norfolk Pine is the next biggest; it goes from side to side as the wind tips it over. It looks like it has arms praising God. Yesterday it was rainy, and this morning when we woke up there was rain. We have been praying for rain so we can plant our grass. When it is not raining the wind blows the dust into the air.
