Winton St Thomas Aquinas School – Thursday 2nd March 2017
Sue Maynard brought a group of enthusiastic 5-6 year olds to the nursery on Thursday afternoon. The group were on a camp and doing lots of different activities and visiting lots of places. Here at the nursery they wanted to learn about setting up a school garden, so Chris took them on a plant hunting trip around the ponds. Each student was given a plant bingo card and all the children searched for their plants and matched the picture son the cards to an actual
plants. While matching they learned a little about each plant and used their senses to feel, smell and look at each
plant. At the end of the walk Chris gave the group a box of native plants matching those found on the walk, so the
children could plant a school garden and learn more about native plants.
