movieguy Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 Kids flee giant spider FULL NEWS INDEX A GIANT spider shut down a school yesterday. The speckled brown exotic creature — as big as a man’s palm — crawled from a set of drums brought in from Senegal for a music workshop. The spider legged it as a teacher tried to trap it in a container. About 350 pupils were sent home as a precaution at Whitelands Park Primary School, in Thatcham, Berks. Experts at London Zoo said it was probably a tropical house spider — which can cause a “nasty reaction” with its bite. The school was being fumigated and was due to re-open today. thesun.com.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
