Education

With our dedicated team of entomologists within our
organization, we have embarked on a diverse breeding
research program which covers various other arthropods and
invertebrates. We have planed to collaborate with SERI
Malaysia (Science in Education and Research Institute) to
turn P.B.F into also an E.R&D. (Educational research and
Development) centre which will hopefully also bring more
life into our Children’s Club (namely Caterpillar Club
respectively) set up by Penang Butterfly Farm in the early
90’.
There have been many educational programs organized by us
since many years back covering age group from 2 years old to
graduates. To name a few, our Story Telling for
kindergarten, Science Project for family orientated year
long program, Be A Breeder Program, Packaged school program
for Primary/Secondary and College, Annual Nature Hunt and
most of all our Caterpillar Club Quarterly Event from trail
hiking to wild camping. All these communication is done
through our Caterpillar Club News letter which is open to
children as well as adults. All these activities are
possible with the collaboration from T.E.H.’s scientific
expertise and B & I’s scientific educational materials.
Still there are a lot more to do for the up coming younger
generations of today who are increasingly I.T. inclined
rather than having wider interest in nature.
