Today the reception children were harvesting their hard work.
In March they germinated sweet pea seeds and slowly watched them grow into strong beanstalks. During this time, they watered them and understood the importance of plants staying cosy and warm in the polytunnel.
When we noticed the pods were big enough to pick, the children searched for them using fine motor skills to pull and pinch. We opened up one to inspect and have a quick taste test - a real success.
The children enjoyed taking some home to share with their families. A wonderful way for our pupils to appreciate growing their own food. We can’t wait for the next batch 🫛🤩☀️
