Winter Wonderland

On Thursday 3rd December 2009, Year 3 visited Sir Harold Hillier Gardens in Romsey.

After a very wet week, we all came ready and prepared for a damp day! However, we were met by beautiful sunshine and fabulous views.

The morning was spent exploring the winter garden. We had paint pallets with colours which we had to try and find amongst the plants. We were amazed to find purples, oranges, reds, yellows... a whole rainbow of colours if you looked closely enough!

Then we searched for some woodland decorations. Pine cones, firs, twigs and leaves were transformed into outdoor hanging decorations.



After lunch - and a good warming up indoors! - we put our creative talents to work. Beautiful pine cones became even more lovely with the addition of some festive glitter! Our artwork will be adorning the tree at our forthcoming Carol Service at Lordshill Church.



A big thank you to all at Hilliers for a wonderul day!
