Remember to take a look at our caterpillars and see how much they have grown. We are looking at growing and life cycles with the children.​​ 

We have planted tomato plants in the garden kindly donated by Sebastians family who have grown them from seeds sent from his grandmothers’ garden in Romania, we are very excited to see them grow. We will be planting seeds to take home and continuing to look after our flower & herb beds in the garden. We will also be observing the caterpillars as they grow and change into butterflies that we will release into the garden.
