This term, the Nursery children have taken part in ‘the Big Grow’ and all our resources were provided to us by ‘The Guardians Grow Charity’. The children have all had the opportunity to plant their own sunflower seed and will learn all about what we need to do to care for our sunflower and watch them grow.
The children have enjoyed taking ownership of their own plant and are beginning to understand why it is important to plant flowers in the natural environment. “Bee’s make honey from flowers,” Taya said.
Once the seeds have started to sprout, both Pre-school and Mini Griffin’s will then explore the outdoor environment finding the right places around the school grounds to plant their sunflowers; they will then continue to care and watch them grow even bigger. We will update you on the success of our sunflowers over the coming weeks so keep your eyes peeled!
