The Weta is a very unusual and interesting insect.
The Weta is an insect found only in New Zealand and it has lived so long it lived the in the time of the dinosaurs!

At the age of 18 months a male chooses a female and they spend 6 months together in the males territory.  At the age of 2 years the female lays 100-300 but the parents never see their children because they die before the eggs hatch 3-5 months later.

Now that you have read this report you will probably look at wetas differently.

On Monday the 31 of March we went to tree top adventures for the day. Room 20 and 21 travelled in a big bus. The trip took a while but it was still fun be cause we got to talk on the bus for an hour. When we arrived there we had lunch and then the instructors put us in the correct tree climbing gear. We set off for a great adventure in the Woodhill Forest.First we went on the practice course. It was easy to use the carabineers. A few minutes later we went on first course I thought it would be easy but as soon as I was up top of the ladder that’s when I, butterflies fluttered in my stomach.
As I walked across the wire I thought that I would fall off.
Afterwards I did the second course I thought it was hard and tiring.My legs hurt on course 3 because I hurt them on course 2.

One thing that I achieved at Woodhill forest was when I took a risk on the 15 foot flying fox!!

One thing I will never forget about the Woodhill Forest when I Tarzan swing! Because it felt like I was going to fall off.
