This week, Year One have been learning all about trees and flowers. We explored their similarities and differences. We discovered that trees are plants too and share many similar features.
On a walk around the school field, we looked closely at different trees, thinking about how they are the same, how they are different, and estimating how old they might be. They carefully drew and labelled their own trees.
Spirituality
There was a magical moment of awe and wonder when we realised that some of our school trees could be over 100 years old! The children sat quietly, taking in their beauty—it was a truly spiritual moment of admiration and respect for nature. I’ve never seen them more peaceful.
