Back in May at the Family Fun Day many of you planted a sunflower seed as part of the Morningside Primary School Sunflower Growing Competition. I hope you have all been looking after your sunflowers over the summer holidays and it is now time to submit your entry.

All you have to do is take two pictures of your sunflower:

1 – A picture with a measuring tape next to it showing the height

2 – A picture of you and your sunflower

As soon as your sunflower head is fully open take the picture before the petals begin to curl backwards. Once this happens the head may start to drop and it won’t be at its tallest.

Please tweet your entry to @MorningsidePS using the #mpssunflowercomp or you can hand the pictures into Miss Jones at the school.

All entries must be tweeted or sent into the school by 18th September and the winner of the #mpssunflowercomp will be announced before September Weekend. The winner will be presented with a special prize at assembly!

Happy Measuring!
