The important roles invertebrates play in our environment.
Investigating invertebrates - Auckland Botanical Gardens
Experiences
With microscopes and magnifiers, children get up close and personal with the creepy crawlies that inhabit our world. They learn about the different roles of invertebrates that keep our environment ticking - pollinators, recyclers, food and prey.
Along the way children explore the food chain and discover that all life is inter-connected. The children learn how they can help the invertebrates contribute to a sustainable future.
