ECO Project - Bug Hotel

This is a 2 week project - this is the first week with completion due for the 6 Nov.

The ECO Committee are running a competition to design a bug hotel. We would like all Primary 4 pupils to enter the competition.

Your design should be interesting and attractive. Designs should be labelled and indicate the recycled materials that we would use if your design is successful.

The best bug hotels have lots of small spaces in different shapes and sizes and made from different materials. Ideally some should be nice and dry inside, and others a bit dampish. Bug hotels are generally made from reclaimed materials, or natural objects, which reduces cost, helps them blend in with their surroundings and is probably more attractive to the mini-beast guests.

All competition entries will be collected by class Eco representatives. Closing date for all entries is Wednesday 20^th November 2013. The winning entries will be announced at assembly on Friday 22^nd November 2013.
