Seed to Seedlings 🌱

3rd May 2026

Room 3 have been busy caring for their sunflower seeds, showing great patience and responsibility aling the way.  After weeks of watering, observing, and learning about what plants need to grow, we were delighted to see the first green shoots appear as our seeds developed into healthy seedlings.

The children took great pride in nurturing their plants and enjoyed watching them change day by day.  Now that the seedlings are strong enough, they have been carefully taken home, where the children will continue to look after them and watch them grow even taller.

We look forward to hearing updates on their progress and hope to see lots of beautiful sunflowers blooming over the coming weeks!
