Week ending
Friday 10th May, 2024
Dear Families,
This week we begun learning about growing plants. We have been learning the parts of a plant/flower and how plants grow through our new song! We have had a lot of fun drawing real flowers and exploring our planting tray where we have planted seeds in soil. We have also enjoyed exploring the garden and observing the different plants and flowers growing there!
Have a lovely weekend,
Best wishes from the Nursery Team
