Creepy Crawlies

This spider was on Room 21's window on Tuesday after morning tea.  We think it is a sheetweb spider.  Half of the class were scared but the other half wasn't - especially Jaimie!  She wanted to keep it!  We looked up the sheetweb spider on the internet and we found out that it usually lives in the bush and only comes out at night.  Not many people have seen a spider like this before so we feel pretty special :o)

Some people thought the spider was dead, but Mr Solly (our Caretaker) touched it and it wasn't!  Luckily he had gloves on....
