For the last two weeks the Junior Infants have been learning all about the things that happen in a garden centre. They have also learned all about Spring and what happens to flowers at this time. We read a lovely story called ‘The Tiny Seed’ by Eric Carle that taught us all about a plants life cycle. You can even watch it on YouTube!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ls6wTeT2cKA

As the Junior Infants had been working so hard in their Garden Centre, we decided to visit a real garden center as a special treat! We saw lots of plants with different colours and different sizes. We saw pots big enough for us to hide in! We also saw ornaments to decorate your garden and found a statue of a Buddha who we had been learning all about in January! We had a great day and we were really well behaved which means that we might to get to go on another trip when the weather gets better….maybe even to the park!
