We had a great visit last week at OSJCT Wellford Gardens, the resident helped us make bird feeders and shared there expertise in flower arranging to help us make a beautiful bouquet. We also had some helpers from further up in Wheatley CE Primary School. Our year 6s held our hands while we walked and showed us how to be safe when crossing the roads. They also helped us with the activities at Wellford and helped us clean our hands ready for our snack. Wheatley CE Primary School OSJCT Wellford Gardens

This week in Acorns we have been adding some new and exciting areas to our garden. Last week we started planting Herbs into our herb garden which we will be able to use in our outdoor kitchen (if you have any herbs that you could donate we will happily add them in to our herb garden).
We are also creating an exploration area this week that we can dig in and explore with the magnifying glasses what we can find in the soil as we dig.
