Kingfishers take over Hillier Gardens!

 


Kingfishers take over Hillier Gardens!


Kingfishers had the most amazing day at Hillier Gardens and learnt so much about plants and minibeasts! What a great way to end our topic! 







We started the day off with learning all about pollution and why bees are so important! 

We played 'Bee Game' where we learnt about the life cycle of plants. First we had to pretend to be flowers. We started off as seeds, then as we grew we stomp down our roots, next we had buds which blossomed into flowers and then 'Betty bee' came and then we were pollinated. Life cycle started again! 


After we had fun playing the game we started to explore the gardens! 











We saw a Redwood Tree and learnt all about how it's bark is special. We all even got to give the tree a hug! We then went through the bamboo forest and then we had fun going over the wooden bridge that was a bit wobbly! 











We had great fun pond dipping finding all the different creatures in the pond. Some of us even found some newts! 

















After our picnic lunch we went on a leaf matching hunt! We had to find the correct trees to match our leaves. We found a cherry, maple, pine and oak tree! 








We ended the day looking for minibeast on a hunt!
