What is Bugs Ed?
Bugs Ed. was established in 2003 in conjunction with the Mount Glorious Biological Centre (www.mountgloriousbutterflies.com) to provide a range of hands-on entomology
based workshops for students of all ages, in order to encourage and expand
their interest in insects. Our workshops have been carefully developed
to compliment various teaching units within the school syllabus, whilst providing
a fun, interactive experience for students. The beauty of Bugs Ed. is that we come to your school, allowing students to learn without distractions in their own classroom and also eliminating the expensive bus fares and mountains of paperwork associated with excursions.
Bugs Ed. workshops are suitable for primary and secondary school students, vacation care groups, science clubs, home teaching networks, nature groups and scout & girl guide gatherings.
Each workshop includes a powerpoint presentation, displays of mounted insects, live insects (which can be handled), activity bags and more!
Our workshops have been received with much enthusiasm, and over the last six years we have taught over 20000 students across more than 190 different schools, covering a range of insect topics such as morphology, diversity, life cycles, ecology and threatened species. Due to its enormous popularity, Bugs Ed. has now expanded and moved from the Mount Glorious Biological Centre to its own premises at The Gap.
