Look at our cress heads!

Take a look at how much cress hair our 'cress head' cups have grown...




I think they made need a haircut! 

Butterfly feeders

This week in Gardening club we made butterfly feeders to give the butterflies in our school garden a tasty snack! During the next couple of weeks we will be creating a butterfly garden near to our vegetable patch. Watch this space...





The boys and girls are busy at work decorating their butterfly feeder cups, with colourful paper petals.





Once we had finished decorating the butterfly feeders, the children attached a piece of string so they could hang the cup in a tree or somewhere in a garden. The children also placed cotton wool inside of the cups ready to add sugar and water to feed the butterflies.

Cress heads!

This week the boys and girls were very excited to see if the vegetables in our school garden had begun to grow yet....and they have grown LOTS and LOTS during the Christmas holiday!!






Next we came back to the classroom to plant Cress seeds. We decided that it would be a good idea to plant the seeds in a funny plant pot to make 'Cress heads!' Take a look at us hard at work...


Decorating our funny plant pots...






Adding cress seeds to the plant pot...



We hope our plant pots grow some cress hair!
