P6 had a wonderful visit to Dr Neil’s Secret Garden to consolidate our learning on plant reproduction. We propagated different plants, discovered new seeds, and ended the day with a scenic walk home, taking time to appreciate the beauty of our city! #Article29

P2 had a great time visiting Dr Neil’s Garden today. We learned more about planting and growing and particularly enjoyed planting our own beans and cuttings. Alan told us lots of new facts for us to share with our adults and friends #outdoorlearning #UNCRC #Article31 🪴👨‍🌾🌸🌳

Some land art created as our P3 and P4 classes came together to learn about the UN Forum on Forests and #sdg15 life on land. (All created without lifting or picking anything off a plant 👍) #GlobalGoals
