museum trip

This year in room 5 we had a museum trip. We went for an exhibition at town, on  Powelliphanta snail. 

The things we  learned: 

Powelliphanta are giants of the snail world. They can reach up to 90mm across, or the size of a man’s fist.
They are also beautiful. Their oversize shells come in an array of colours and patterns, ranging from hues of red and brown to yellow and black.

Powelliphanta snails are most unlikely to be found in your garden.                                              favour living in the forest, and particularly like to eat earthworms, sucking them up through their mouth just like we eat spaghetti!
