To tie in with our Family Learning growing project and work based on our learning about Vincent Van Gogh, the children have been planting sunflowers as well as painting them. Everyone should now have a little pot with their sunflower seed at home and the children should be able to tell their families what they need to do to look after it. Hopefully, they will be able to bring their plants or a photo back to Nursery later in the term to show us how well they are growing.
\nIn the meantime here are some photos and comments from the planting activity.<\/p>\n

\n Conan:<\/span> it was Vincent Van Gogh who did the sunflowers.
\n Suzie:<\/span> you put soil in then you put the seed in then you water it then you take it home.
\n Josie:<\/span> when you make plants you need water and seeds.
