Year 3 Mindful Planting

This week, each class in Year 3 were gifted an indoor plant...

This week, each class in Year 3 were gifted an indoor plant bought from a local business called ‘Grow My Wellbeing’.  This was a chance for the children to connect with nature mindfully and learn more about the benefits of keeping and caring for plants. During the sessions, the children were able to touch the gritty sand, run their fingers through the silky soil and even touch the worm castings (Earthworm poo!). The afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all and everybody is now looking forward to seeing watching their class plants grow!

A big thank you to Chantal from Grow My Wellbeing for showing us how to pot the plant cuttings and also talking to us about the health benefits of caring for plants.
