The whole school had\u00a0a fabulous day at Logan Gardens on the 27th of April.\u00a0 First, we all enjoyed a social picnic on the garden lawns.\u00a0 We got to observe the friendly coy carp in the pond who came up to say hello to everyone.<\/p>\n
Class\u00a02\u00a0worked with Kath to use their observation and mapping\u00a0skills\u00a0to create\u00a03D mapping of the area using natural resources.\u00a0 They also\u00a0\u00a0applied their maths skills to use compass points and coordinates to navigate around the gardens.\u00a0 Later they were given the option of either being scientists or artists by surveying their surroundings and recording their findings on a scaled location line.<\/p>\n
Class 1 enjoyed a nature walk with Kath before taking part in a texture treasure hunt.\u00a0 The children created beautiful collages using foraged natural materials.\u00a0 Then followed\u00a0an experience of using magnifiers and microscopes to observe plants up close.\u00a0 The group then created their own 3D map of an area of the garden using natural materials to represent the landscape, plants and flowers all around them.<\/p>\n
The sun shone for the whole session and everyone had a great time!<\/p>\n
