I was a bit excited yesterday when I got to pick up our new frogs from Room 12 at Avonhead School. The children there named our frogs Trevor and Hoopy Doopy Doo, but they have said we can rename them if we want. One is a boy and one is a girl. We know so far that they like to eat live bugs like flies and moths. They might both be Golden Bell's Frogs although one might be a Whistling Tree Frog (thanks to Solan's Mummy who has frogs at home and knows lots about them). They need something to climb in their tank like a rock or a log. 

We talked today about cleaning the water in the tank but I have been so worried that they would jump out of the tank! After school Nicole and I took out some of the water and now we can see the tops of the rocks. 

Tomorrow we'll take more photos! 

(Kate (Mrs Morgan) took this photo of me after we put the tank and frogs in my car...I was very careful not to go over any bumps!) 

Some things we wanted to know today:

• What is a frog called in Maori?
• What sort of food do they eat?
• How often do we feed them?
• How do they stick to the side of the tank?
