This week we have had a tremendous number of interesting facts being shared by the children. Congratulations to the following children who have amazed us with their ability to hunt out interesting snippets of information:
Isaac Stevens
Did you know that modern day birds are thought to be related to therapod dinosaurs? One similarity is that the dinosaurs also regurgitated food for their offspring!
Sophie Adams
Did you know that the most important components of most parrots' diets are seeds, nuts, fruit, buds and other plant material. A few species sometimes eat animals and carrion, while the lories and lorikeets are specialised for feeding on floral nectar and soft fruits
Georgia Brooks
Amazingly an adult human has over 46 miles of nerves in their body. On a completely different note, there is one particular food that cockroaches don’t like… cucumber. This healthy green fruit gives them indigestion!
Holly Maskell
Strangely it is illegal to ride an ugly horse in some American cities! Doing so can result in a fine of $200.
Aiden Paterson
Did you know that penguins are flightless birds?
While other birds have wings for flying, penguins have adapted flippers to help them swim in the water. Most penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere.
Zaima Abidin
The Latin phrase pollice verso is used in the context of gladiatorial combat for a hand gesture used by Ancient Roman crowds to pass judgment on a defeated gladiator.
