Fun at the Botanical Gardens

To begin our term's focus of Nurture and Nourish, we went to the gardens and Dean's Bush to study why it is important to nurture and nourish plants. We learnt how big plants grow, and why they are important to us, and to birds and bugs. We put blindfolds on so we could feel the plants. And we looked at bugs through a magnifying glass. We found worms, eggs, spiders, and beetles living in the leaf mulch under the trees. We found a stick insect and we heard the birds singing in the trees.
We had a lovely day.
