We discovered this enormous caterpillar happily munching its way through lots and lots of green leaves - and we managed to capture it in action! Just look at it go! After a little detective work, we think our very hungry visitor might be an Eyed Hawk-moth caterpillar. What an exciting discovery! Our school garden is always full of surprises, and you never quite know who might be hiding amongst the leaves. We’ll be keeping an eye out for our caterpillar and hoping we get to see what happens next… ### Gardening Club - 080926 The Very Hungry Caterpillar [![](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/gardening-club-080926-the-very-hungry-caterpillar/IMG_2068(1).jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/images/gallery/gardening-club-080926-the-very-hungry-caterpillar/IMG_2068(1).jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/gardening-club-080926-the-very-hungry-caterpillar/IMG_2065.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/images/gallery/gardening-club-080926-the-very-hungry-caterpillar/IMG_2065.jpeg) [Gardening](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/gardening) [ Year 5 Head to Forest School!!](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-09-07-year-5-head-to-forest-school) [Harvesting, Cooking & Plenty of Garden Fun ](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/news/2026-09-09-harvesting-cooking-plenty-of-garden-fun) ### School News - [Calendar](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/calendar) - [Events](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/events) - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Trawden-Forest-Primary-School-2044364025884936) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/trawdenforestprimary/) - [News](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/news) - [Newsletters](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/school-news/newsletters) ![Trawden Forest Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/trawden-forest-primary-school-2/images/logo/Untitled_design.png) #### Trawden Forest Primary School Dean Street Trawden Lancashire BB8 8RN (01282) 865242 #### Useful Links - [Contact Us](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/contact) - [Term Dates](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/parents/term-dates) - [Absence Reporting](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/absence-reporting) - [Calendar](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/calendar) - [Job Vacancies](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/job-vacancies) #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Trawden-Forest-Primary-School-2044364025884936) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/trawdenforestprimary/) © Copyright 2025–2026 Trawden Forest Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://trawden.lancs.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
