Year 1's trip to Hillier Gardens.

What a wonderful trip Year 1 have had at Hillier Gardens today!

As part of our topic 'Growing Things' the children had the opportunity to visit Hillier Gardens and take part in many exciting activities.

These activities included:

A tour around the vegetable garden.
A game where the children learned about the role of bees.
Art in the gardens where children created pieces of art using natural materials.
Creating a caterpillar using herbs. 
A seed survival game.
Looking at plants through coloured filters.

The children also walked through the bamboo tunnel, over the wooden plank, across the wobbly bridge and to the big pond!

Thank you to Hillier Gardens for having us and to all the parent helpers who joined us today.
